CORBIN INDIAN FTR1200 SEAT
With the launch of Indian Motorcycle’s FTR1200 being greeted
so enthusiastically around the world, it was only a matter of time
before aftermarket accessories (in addition to Indian’s own comprehensive
range) appeared.
One of the first is a new seat produced by Corbin, one of the most
famous names in motorcycle saddles. The Brave seat brings together
Corbin’s well-knnown combination of form and function; up front the
seating area has been ergonomically designed to distribute body weight
over a greater area, providing longer-range support and eliminates hot
spots. The seating platform helps to hold your body in place and curbs
sliding in the saddle. This also helps to relieve rider fatigue by taking
pressure off wrists and knees. Bucket shaping of the front seating area
gives an unprecedented amount of body support, curving up at the back
to provide support for the lower lower back. The Brave is a direct and easy
swap for the factory seat and includes preinstalled brackets. For details,

NORDSCHLEIFE BARBECUE
SEASONING
We know that most of you enjoy a good barbecue and now you
can make your outdoor cuisine taste even better with Nordschleife
barbecue seasoning. It’s named
after the racetrack which will be
more familiar to people by its name
of the Nurburgring. Now, we’re not
entirely sure what the connection
is between a grilled sausage and
one of the world’s most fearsome
racing circuits, although we have
had a few barbecued burgers that
had a distinct flavour of burned
rubber. However, the manufacturers
assure us that this seasoning will
go well with all types of meat and
it features Himalayan salt, paprika,
onion, pepper, garlic, onion, allspice
and herbs with no mention of
Dunlop or Pirelli. The 300g packet
is airtight and resealable and is
available exclusively at http://www.
nordschleife.us for 14.90 euros.
HERALD MOTOR COMPANY
T-SHIRTS
Cambridgeshire-based Herald Motor Company began ten years ago
with the aim of designing and creating bikes in Great Britain and has
become known for its range of small motorcycles,. Last year it upped
its game with the introduction of the Brute 500, the company’s first
bike to be designed and built at its Huntingdon headquarters – you will
have seen the prototype in the news pages of 100% Biker #242 at the
beginning of this year.
Now Herald has unveiled a range of clothing to complement
its motorcycles. The range comprises both long and short sleeve
t-shirts and sweatshirts in 100% cotton and feature artwork created
exclusively for the brand by a British designer. They incorporate
skulls, workshop tools and a joker, all signature images of Herald. The
clothing will be sold in selected authorised Herald dealerships and also
online at http://www.heraldmotorcompany.com/shop.
