Rust Reaper
There are hundreds of “miracle” penetrants on the market; here’s one that actually prescribes patience as an ingredient to success! Rust Reaper provides detailed instructions with its penetrant/lubricant emphasizing the need to methodically work penetrant into stuck parts to free them. We’ve been experimenting with Rust Reaper on some of our projects. We’re impressed with how well it works, and the company has recently introduced a handy applicator for drive chains, perfect for motorcycles. $5.75 and up. More info: www.rustreaper.com 

NEXX XR1.R Carbon
If you’re looking for a light helmet, NEXX-USA says its new XR1.R Carbon full-face helmet weighs 2.64 pounds, about a quarter of a pound less than a standard XR1.R and easily a full pound lighter than the average helmet. The XR1.R Carbon is ECE and DOT approved, and features NEXX’s “CoolMax” fabrics in the removable and washable lining to wick moisture away. Anti-noise cheek pads keep it quiet, and two air inlets and four outlets keep your head cool. $599. More info: www.nexx-usa.com 

Motion Pro Titanium Wrenches
OK, so nobody really needs an ultra-light titanium wrench, but the moment you put one of these beauties in your hand, you’ll want one. Made from tool-grade titanium alloy, they weigh less than a quarter of a standard steel wrench. And because they’re titanium they’ll never rust or corrode. Downside? Decidedly pricey, they’re also not as strong as forged steel. Available in 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 13mm and 14mm sizes. $18.99 and up. More info: www.motionpro.com 

Forma Voyage Touring Boots
Italy’s SDE Motorsports, best known in the U.S. for its Forma racing boots, has announced a new line of touring boots, including the Voyage, a mid-priced waterproof boot made with nabuk leather (looks like suede but made from the outer side of the hide for more strength). An oil-resistant rubber sole is combined with a leather heel. There’s also a wear pad for the gear shifter, and an anti-shock midsole plus anti-bacterial replaceable footpad. Price to be announced.
