Cold, wet and fresh out of bed, I wheel my trusty bike out onto the road and thumb the starter, at 6am this is far from my normal riding time but today I am making a bit of a journey south, towards our nations capital, my destination: the GB Racing factory in New Barnet to see how a piece of crash protection is made from design to shipping. GB Racing has steadily gained a great reputation for it's product over the last few years, go through a race paddock and you will see many of the bikes adorned with their engine casings and when race teams entrust their bikes with a product you know it works.

R&G Racing – the world’s number one manufacturer of crash protection – has now released a fitment for BMW’s new superbike – the awesome S1000RR.

R&G Racing to provide crash protection for California Superbike School Following BMW Motorrad USA's recent partnership with Keith Code's California Superbike School to provide brand new BMW S1000RRs for its rider training programs, crash protection specialist R&G Racing has confirmed that it will be supplying the bikes with a full complement of its award-winning protective products.
Low speed and static tumbles are not only embarrassing, they can be very costly; damaged engine casings and bodywork can disrupt or even halt journeys completely, and can be expensive to repair or replace. More commonplace during winter months, when wet leaves, frost and ice can cause riders to lose footing and tyres to lose traction, it is advisable for any rider to take precautions by fitting crash bars. Constructed from heavy-duty steel, SW-Motech Crash Bars form a protective barrier around the areas liable to damage caused by low speed falls, and can help protect casings and fairings during impacts with other vehicles and in slides and falls at higher speeds.
