The SAFEST motorcycle kit CAN and SHOULD be easier to find

To access the Bennetts High Performance Award database and find the provably safest motorcycle riding gear, visit www.bennetts.co.uk/high-performance because the abrasion resistance, seam strength, tear strength and armour all make a big difference to keeping you safer, and it doesn't have to be at the cost of comfort or price. When you’re buying motorcycle clothing there’s a good chance the protective performance is part of your decision-making process. After all, if it’s not at least partly about the safety why are you spending your cash on bike kit at all? Why not just wear ‘normal’ clothes if you're not interested in the protective performance, and maybe buy a hiking jacket if you want to stay dry? The fact is that most of us are well aware that shorts and a tee-shirt are a bad idea, so we want to know how safe the riding gear we buy might be. With four different standards to understand it can get quite confusing, but thanks to the Bennetts High Performance award, it’s now much easier to choose the motorcycle kit that best suits YOUR needs… No riding gear can guarantee your safety, and every crash is different, but lab testing can help you compare the products you're buying, and make an informed choice based on comfort, value, features and protective performance.
