"Versatility and good looks are combined in the all-new Attack jacket... er, hoodie," says Scorpion National Sales Manager, Jon Eide. "Or maybe we should call it a hooded jacket?"

Maybe you really are aiming an R1200GS at South America's Atacama Desert, Morocco's Atlas Mountains or Bolivia's Road of Death. Or maybe you just want to look the part. Either way, BMW's new Rallye 3 suit has got you covered. Released last March, the Rallye 3 picks up where the estimable Rallye Pro 2 left off, with a list of evolutionary upgrades. The jacket and pants are still cut from Dupont Cordura, with a breathable proprietary coating. A layer of tougher stuff adds abrasion resistance in all the usual areas, and on the inside there's a comfy nylon-mesh liner. Beyond that, this latest design looks and feels tidier than before.

(Lake Forest, CA August 20, 2010) What's the latest buzz in the helmet biz? Check out the "chameleon" effect of Scorpion's all-new Eternity EXO-750 helmet.

They say form follows function in the design world, but in this case, the Eternity helmet is light years ahead of the competition in both regards!
