Those of us who ride old bikes know we love them and have every reason to. But finding good parts and accessories can sometimes be a challenge. The following products are from companies that have stepped up to meet it.

Alpinestars has just introduced the new Matrix Kevlar jacket. Designed with urban riders in mind, the new Matrix is made of breathable cotton, Kevlar reinforced internally and treated for weather resistance and durability. It features adjustable, lightweight, CE certified protectors in the elbows and shoulders for excellent impact protection, and they can be removed for casual use. The Matrix also features a removable mesh liner and a soft, knitted collar, wrist and waist, three exterior pockets and one interior pocket. $199.95. More info: Alpinestars

Perfect for bikes missing their original air box, K&N’s breathe better than stock filters and last longer. Don’t want a pod-type filter?
