Protect the muffler of a Harley-Davidson Street motorcycle from daily abuse with the new Muffler Slider Guard Kit (P/N 49000067, $39.95) from Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Parts & Accessories.

The easy-to-install heat-resistant split ring slips over the muffler end cap and is secured by a black-finished stainless steel band. Its knobby surface and satin-black finish add a rugged look to the bike’s profile. The Muffler Slider Guard fits all 2015-later Street models equipped with the Original Equipment muffler.

Speed and Strength: Cruise Missile Armored Hoodie

Speed & Strength Cruise Missile Armored Hoody

Speed & Strength Cruise Missile Armored Hoody

Dress for the slide, not the ride. Or in this case, you can dress for both. This lightweight, stylish sweatshirt is fully armoured with shoulder, elbow and back protectors. The sweatshirt is also equipped with zippered hand warming pockets, as well as belt snaps to keep the hoody from riding up in case of a slide. The pads are a bit large, which means you may look a little bit like a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle or one of the hyper-yoked dudes from Jersey Shore, but who says that’s a bad thing? Especially when you know you’re propper protected should any part of your ride go awry.

Spidi Avant-Garde Winter Glove

There are many components that go into making a perfect glove. For me, the main one is simplicity. I want a glove that will do everything I want it to, without having too many functions or too much junk on it. The Avant-Garde Glove by Spidi is exactly that. Warm without bulk, water resistant, breathable, lightweight and super soft: these gloves have quickly become the standard for our cold weather riding.

With sheep leather on the back and durable goat leather on the palm, this all black glove has a timeless, easy to wear look. There is no velcro, only an adjustable snap for fitment, which I always prefer as I tend to store my gloves in my helmet and the velcro always pulls on the inner shell.

Timeless simplicity is hard to master, especially when function is the most important aspect of the design. Spidi has managed to pull it off perfectly in the last several pieces we have had to test from them. Excellent design and high quality materials, what more can you ask for?

Harley-Davidson Jutland Boot

Heritage is a term that you see thrown around a lot these days, but it generally just means high quality materials and a simple, timeless design. Manufactured by Wolverine, a company that has been around since the late 1800’s, Harley-Davidson Footwear is not only pulling from the style and heritage of H-D, but the quality and performance of Wolverine as well.

The Jutland boot is constructed of a full-grain leather upper with a full length cushion sock lining. A rubber outsole with cement construction help you grip the road. The Jutland Boot is part of Harley-Davidson’s lifestyle collection, so they are not designed specifically to be riding boots. There is no toe, ankle or heel protection and the lace-up style lets a lot of wind through the laces while riding, but if you’re looking for a casual boot that is comfortable and more than capable for short rides, the Jutland is a perfect fit.

I love the unique toe shape on this boot and they have quickly become my go-to for fair weather days with light riding.

H-D Passenger Mini Footboard Mounts

Harley-Davidson Mini Footboard Mounting Kit // $99.95

Bulky passenger pegs can be a pain for the rider and the passenger. Check out H-D’s new Passenger Mini Footboard Mount Kit, which replaces the Original Equipment passenger footboards of 1993–later Harley-Davidson Touring models with more-compact footpegs or mini footboards. The passenger’s feet are moved rearward and inward to create more space between the rider footboard and the passenger foot support, extra legroom that might make it easier to walk the bike in and out of parking spaces. When folded, the pegs are tighter to the bike, which makes it easier for many owners to reach and push the bike in a garage. Original equipment on the Electra Glide Ultra Classic Low and Ultra Limited Low models, this kit is an ideal solution for short-limbed riders. It includes a left and right mount and required installation hardware. The mounts accept several styles of Mini Footboards or male-mount style passenger footpegs, which are sold separately.
