18/02/2008 - Honda launches apparel range with Joe Rocket

If you want to look the part on your Honda motorcycle, there’s only one way – choose Honda’s officially licensed Joe Rocket apparel.

With more than a decade’s worth of experience in the motorcycle clothing sector, Joe Rocket’s name is synonymous with style, quality and protection.

The new Honda range offers each of these qualities in both leather and textile apparel for men and women, to include jackets, trousers and racing suits, as well as gloves, tank bags, tail bags and a helmet back pack.

The touring Nirvana jacket, tailored for both male and female fit offers a 100% waterproof seam-sealed construction and retails at £249.99, with further ladies fit jackets sporting this season’s most popular colours. Men’s apparel ranges from a full red and black Honda 2-piece racing suit (RRP £599.99), to the popular CBR leather and textile jackets, all having complementary zip-in trousers.

For those wanting a racier look there’s the Honda Repsol GP jacket (RRP £149.99) and the Honda Racing mesh jacket with removable windproof liner and engineered plastic impact protection retailing for £149.99, with the Super Tour Goldwing textile exuding comfort in both men’s and women’s fit for £199.99. The varied range of glove styles further enhances the range for on and off road riding activity.

The flexibility and performance of Joe Rocket’s leather apparel will be demonstrated in action this year with Honda’s British Supersport racing star, Steve Brogan, challenging for the championship title with HM Plant Honda, Honda UK’s official racing team.

All jackets and trousers carry full CE approved armour in key areas to offer the best possible standards in body protection, although some armour can also be removed to create a more casual but fashion leisure look.

The full range of Honda Motorcycle apparel will be available at the end of February from selected Honda motorcycle dealerships across the UK, although the official range catalogue is also available from your local dealer, or can be ordered by emailing honda@tranam.co.uk and quoting reference PRHOLP1.
