This month we bring you performance accessories for your imports and new safety headgear
to match up to the speed

Pulse & Raptor jackets
Cramster’s 2009 range of jackets includes two new additions: Pulse and Raptor. Both these jackets are constructed using Cordura material and come with protective padding. Some designs are made to look similar to the jackets worn by A. C. Fariyas and his group in the acclaimed Pulsar Mania advert. For more details, visit their website.

KBC FFR
The FFR range from KBC is their solution for customers looking to invest in a modular flip face helmet. It employs the company’s patented MagCam mechanism for its flip face operation. This is essentially a protective metal latching system which prevents the helmet from opening up in a crash scenario. Like other helmets in the KBC range, the FFR fits all the safety regulations like DOT, ECE and Snell.

TBR M2 V.A.L.E Slip-on / Full system
The Honda CBR1000RR and Suzuki GSX1300R Hayabusa are already here and their performance accessories are on the way. One of the first in the line of serious upgrades is the new M2 slip-on canister / full system from Two Brothers Racing. The canister is constructed using three choices of materials like carbonfibre, aluminium or titanium. The system as a whole claims to produce up to 2PS more than the stock Fireblade and can reduce the bike’s weight by up to 4 kilos. On the ‘Busa, power is augmented by as much as 4PS while weight is slashed by almost 10 kilos. Refer to the contact information for further details, pricing and availability

Sparx S07
Remember the helmet full of skulls that our BI journo Rohit Paradkar’s been wearing for most photo shoots? The same shell will now don new graphics for 2009. These include simple designs ranging from solid colour combos to whacky graffiti art to suit your taste. Priced a tad above the other brands available in market, the Sparx range boasts of DOT and ECE safety standards compatibility with the KBC brand backing it up.

Canon EOS 500D
The new Canon DSLR camera features a 15.1 MP CMOS sensor with the ability to record video in full HD along with those crisp and sharp images high resolution images. Who needs a handycam and a camera when you can tag along this baby. This new gizmo sets you back by Rs 50,000
