Motorcycle Clothing Fit for Winter Riding

Thursday, December 1st, 2011

When the temperatures drop and the winter months creep in, keeping yourself warm when riding your motorcycle is a priority and finding the right motorcycle clothing will ensure this. Here at J&S Accessories we specialise in providing all elements designed to make motorcycle riding enjoyable and safe in the winter. We have a wide selection of clothing and accessories from a variety of manufacturers and are on hand to offer advice in choosing the right products for you.

There are a number of key items that you should have in your wardrobe to be prepared for winter riding:

1.    The first thing to invest in is a good quality pair of gloves- by closing the gap between your hand and wrists you will help to minimise the wind chill you feel when riding.

2.    After already investing in the right helmet for your needs, by purchasing a balaclava you will not only add an extra layer of protection but will help to keep your head warm too. To add further layers of warmth, team a balaclava with a scarf or a neck tube.

3.    Invest in thermals. Leathers are ultra-protective and fairly warm but wearing thermals underneath will ensure your body is kept at a comfortable temperature.

4.    Once you have layered up with thermals and fleeces, make sure you finish off with a warm and protective jacket. Ensuring that it is well lined will mean you won’t lose any of the heat you’ve kept in through your other layers.

5.    Look at some of the accessories we also supply that can keep you warm such as a carbon heated vest, handlebar muffs and boot liners.

You wouldn’t get cold in your home as you’d invest in good quality double glazing Watford to keep the cold out, so make sure you do the same when you’re riding your bike.

If you are gearing yourself up for the winter, here at J&S Accessories we can help by supplying great quality motorcycle clothing to keep you warm. For more information on the products we sell, take a look at our website today or visit one of our 12 nationwide stores.

Motorbike Helmets That Are Right for You

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2011

The rush of riding a motorbike is a feeling like no other, however as the roads get more dangerous it’s important to ensure you have all the necessary equipment to make sure your ride is as safe as it can be. Here at J&S Accessories we have a wide selection of high quality motorbike helmets for you to choose from which is a great place to start when purchasing accessories for you and your bike. Established for over 30 years, we are proud to offer our customers the full service needed for motorcycling, selling not only accessories but also top quality bikes.

When choosing a motorbike helmet, it’s important to make sure you get the right one for you. We supply two main types of helmet; the first is a full face helmet, which is the best choice if you are looking for optimum safety. The second, an open faced helmet, can provide the same level of safety but doesn’t offer as much protection for your chin and face.

As you start the process of finding your new helmet, the first thing to think about is size. As with your body, everyone’s head is a different size and shape. Your helmet should be the first layer of protection for your head, so it’s important to ensure it fits correctly with little to no movement when on.

Looking after your bike will be second nature to you, like ensuring your garage doors Bristol are secure when your bike is locked up inside it. With this in mind, it should become second nature to maintain your helmet too. Washing it regularly with warm soapy water and looking after it will not only extend its life, but could save yours too.

To improve the service we offer to our customers, we have a selection of videos on our website to help you in choosing the right accessories. It will give you a chance to see the quality of our products, spoken about by experts in the field.

For more information on choosing from our great range of motorbike helmets, come and visit us at one of our 12 nationwide stores or take a look at our website today to see what we can offer you.

Guide to Choosing a Motorcycle Helmet

Tuesday, March 8th, 2011

As a key item for all motorbike riders, a helmet is essential to your safety and comfort when you’re out on the road. Whether you’re purchasing a helmet for the first time, or indulging in a higher quality replacement, the selection process doesn’t get any easier. The vast selection of motorcycle helmets available can often stump riders, but here at J&S Accessories, we are able to guide you through the different helmets available, enabling you to easily make the most beneficial choice.

There are two main different types of helmets available; full face and open face. Let’s take a look at each, and how they are able to benefit you, the rider.

Full Face

For the ultimate in protection, the full face helmets are the best choice. Providing you with crucial cushioning, safety, and visibility features, they will allow you to enjoy the safest and most comfortable ride experience.

The full face helmets which we provide come with a useful sun-visor, to ensure you’re never distracted by glare or bright lights whilst out on the road. There is an extensive range of sizes and designs available, and to pinpoint which helmet will be best for you, it is useful to consider the following features;

•    Weight
•    Ventilation
•    Size
•    Scratch Resistance
•    Aerodynamics
•    Lining

Our excellent collection brings together a range of leading manufacturers, including nitro helmets, shark helmets and HJC helmets, providing you with the highest quality selection at the most competitive of prices.

Open Face, Flip Up & Scooter

As a flexible type of helmet, these don’t provide the same level of full coverage and protection as full face models, but are ideal for those who may need to keep removing the helmet or ride a scooter.

As the flip up helmets include a moveable chin, which can be lifted up, this  is extremely useful in situations which require riders to show their face, such as when entering a building to stopping to refuel. As with the full face, they also include sun-visors.

The open face varieties are perfect for scooter riders, and include full ventilation systems for maximum comfort. They also offer an essential level of protection, and useful cooling system.

If you’d like more help choosing your helmet, contact our experienced staff for more information. The videos on our website also contain a wealth of useful advice about motorcycle helmets, so be sure to watch them for even more excellent tips.

Buy Cheap HJC Helmets

Wednesday, January 26th, 2011

When shopping for biking gear, picking which motorcycle helmet to buy is the most important and difficult part of the entire process. That’s because not only is the helmet the only legal requirement in terms of safety clothing, it also protects the most vulnerable part of the human body – your head. A simple slip on the street can end in tragedy if there’s a head injury involved, so it’s even more vital that the helmet you choose for use when riding is adequate, yet has an affordable price tag. Here at Motorcycle Clothing Shop, we aim to simplify the process by offering cheap HJC helmets for purchase online.

With our online store, you don’t have to choose between quality and price. With box helmets and Caberg helmets augmenting our popular HJC range, you’ll have no need go elsewhere. We stock fully accredited and safety tested helmets for as little as £49.99, making them the ideal products on which to spend the last of your Christmas money.

This £49.99 helmet (the HJC CS – 12N with Cyclone Graphic) features a lightweight synthetic shell and has achieved ECE22.05 standard, a safety accreditation awarded by the U.N Economic Commission for Europe. This means that you can rest assured its modest price tag doesn’t put you at risk.

Of course, price and quality aren’t the only considerations you’ll have when deciding on your helmet –you’ll want to make sure you purchase a well fitting product too. According to some authorities in the industry, how well your helmet fits could be a factor in how likely injury or death is in the event of a crash.

The Helmet Safety body SHARP quote the findings of a cross-European study which concluded that in 12% of all bike accidents the rider’s helmet came off in the process, presumably due to being too loose or improperly secured. This demonstrates how crucial a good fit is, and here at the Motorcycle Clothing Store we stock all of our HJC helmets in both medium and large sizes (measurements available on individual product pages).
