YOUR CHOICEof aftermarket

exhausts for KTM’s 1290 Super

Duke R just got larger, and more

Oriental. Yoshimura’s new Alpha T

slip-on is almost 1kg lighter than

the standard OE fitment and

promises improvements to both

power and torque (because

175bhp and 104lb.ft clearly isn’t

enough). Finished in stainless

steel with a carbon-fibre

end cap, it has been

designed for use

without changes

to your fuelling

and has a

removable

baffle so you

can really bring

the noise.

MUC-OFF POLISHING

BALL KIT

VENHILL V

ROTATING T-DRI ER

Hours of fun guaranteed with this fabric-ended

shaft (yes, shaft) that resembles an unlikely

combination of hex rod and muppet’s penis.

Attach it to a drill and it’s designed to buff the

harder-to-reach areas of your machine. It’s

reckoned to be suitable for both smooth and

textured surfaces and Muc-Off say it will allow

you to remove any scuff marks and light

scratches from areas such as wheels, spokes

and engine components.

Garage tinkering just got less sweary,

thanks to Venhill’s latest VT46 Rotating

T-Driver. A rotating handleslides up and

down the shaft (yes, shaft) which can click

into multiple positions, making it easier to

operate on all areas of your machine. The

special handle also means the tool can be both

spun and steadied when in use – making it

easier to remove bolt-ons and fairings. It uses

a standard 3/8-inch drive.

New for 2018, ARMR Base Wear under layers

are available in sizes to suit riders of almost

any circumference (except XS sizes). Made of

a breathable, fast-drying material with

thermal properties this

clobber is designed

to keep you either

warm or cool,

depending on the

temperature. A

compression fit

means they also

support your

muscles,

reducing fatigue

when you’re

properly on it.
