Anyone searching for motorcycle accessories and protective riding gear will soon come across a long list of motorcycle covers, helmets, protectors and safety jackets. But an eye-catching product photo or claim such as “all-weather” does not automatically mean that something is suitable for your motorcycle, riding style or everyday use.
The three most common purchasing mistakes are easy to recognise:
That is why it pays to compare the product specifications first, and only then consider colour, price and additional features.
For a waterproof motorcycle cover, the length, width and height are crucial. Measure your motorcycle including the mirrors, top box and any accessories. A cover for a scooter is not automatically suitable for a larger road bike.
Oxerbog covers are available in sizes including:
According to the product description, these sizes are intended for many Vespas, scooters, dirt bikes and road motorcycles. Always check the dimensions yourself. A cover that is too large can move in the wind, while one that is too small can put unnecessary strain on the seams and paintwork.
The same principle applies to clothing. Do not just look at S, M, L or XXL. Check the size chart, chest measurement, waist, length and the position of the protectors as well. A motorcycle protective jacket should fit closely without restricting your freedom of movement.
For motorcycle body armour, it is important to know which parts of the body are actually covered. The protective jackets on offer feature shoulder, elbow, chest, back and waist protection, among other areas. According to the product information, the protectors are removable and adjustable.
For the legs, motorcycle protective trousers with hard PP shells and EVA foam are designed to protect the hips, thighs and knees. This makes them an interesting option for motocross, enduro, MTB and other outdoor sports. Before buying, check:
Be careful with general claims. According to the manufacturer’s own product description, the protective trousers are designed to help absorb shocks and the impact of falls. This is not a guarantee against injury and does not automatically make them suitable as certified motorcycle clothing for use on public roads.
If you are looking for an ECE 22.06 motorcycle helmet, check that the product page actually mentions this standard. The MY 935 is identified in the product information as ECE R 22.06 approved. According to the listed specifications, the helmet has an ABS outer shell, EPS inner layer, dual visor and micrometric fastening system.
The available head sizes range from:
Measure your head with a flexible tape measure at the widest point, approximately above the eyebrows. A modular motorcycle helmet should fit firmly without creating pressure points. The chin strap should be adjusted correctly; the product instructions give room for approximately two fingers between the strap and your chin as a practical guideline.
A dual visor and dedicated Bluetooth space are useful features, but also check the weight, fastening system and whether the fit suits your head shape.
Why it suits this profile: The L size is a practical choice for many scooters, mopeds and more compact motorcycles stored outdoors or indoors.
The exact size of 220 × 95 × 110 cm makes comparisons easier. The cover has elastic straps, wind buckles and openings for a chain lock; the lock is not included.
Water-repellent coating, double-stitched seams and four reflective strips according to the product information.
Why it suits this profile: Suitable for motorcyclists and scooter riders looking for a modular helmet with a dual visor and communication compatibility.
The product listing explicitly mentions ECE R 22.06 and provides head measurements for each size. Check the marking and fit before use.
ABS shell, EPS lining, dual visor and provision for a Bluetooth headset according to the product specifications.
Why it suits this profile: Designed for off-road riders, enduro enthusiasts and outdoor sportspeople who want to cover multiple areas of the body.
The protectors are adjustable and removable. This allows you to check the fit and maintain the garment according to the instructions.
PE shell, EVA foam and breathable mesh, with protection at the shoulders, elbows, chest, back and waist according to the product description.
Why it suits this profile: A focused choice for motocross protection, dirt biking, enduro and MTB, where the legs are subject to extensive movement.
The product description separately identifies the hips, thighs and knees. Adjustable straps help keep the shells in place.
PP hard shells, EVA foam and breathable mesh, suitable for adults and various outdoor activities according to the product information.
We have put together a complete, up-to-date list of products that fully meet these strict selection criteria and the applicable European safety regulations.
Check a motorcycle protective jacket, trousers or helmet for tears, deformation, loose seams and damaged fastenings before every ride. Replace protectors if they show visible damage after a heavy impact. Do not modify protective components yourself, as alterations may affect their performance.
Wash clothing with removable protectors according to the product instructions. For the jacket and trousers mentioned above, this means removing the protectors, cleaning with cold water and mild detergent, and allowing them to air-dry. Store everything in a dry place away from direct sunlight.
A reflective safety jacket is mainly intended to improve visibility. The Dunlop models use fluorescent colours and retroreflective strips; the product information mentions a standard reference for the Class 3 model. Check the clothing label to see exactly which standard applies, and use such a jacket as an addition to suitable motorcycle clothing.
It can be, but only if the length, width and height match. Also check that the mirrors, handlebars and rear section are fully covered. If in doubt, choose the larger size and fasten the elastic straps and wind buckles securely.
That depends on use, storage, washing and impacts. Check the seams, fastenings and protectors regularly. After a heavy fall or visible damage, replacing the garment is wiser than continuing to use it, even if the fabric still looks fine.
Not necessarily. For everyday road use, a motorcycle jacket with suitable protectors and an approved helmet is generally more appropriate. Motocross protection is mainly practical for off-road riding, enduro and sports where freedom of movement and targeted protection around the knees, hips, back and chest are important.
