Kellermann AXERA sequential indicators

erman LED lighting pioneer Kellermann has unveiled what it describes as a "new era" in sequential indicators, called AXERA. 

"It reimagines the geometry and light guidance of sequential indicators in a clean, polygonal arrow shape. A row of LEDs that follows the edge create a sequential light that moves in the direction of travel, turning every change of direction into a clear line."

Made in Germany by Kellermann Lighting GmbH, the ECE approved "clean geometry, consistent design of AXERA" delivers "precise and bright directional guidance."

Founded more than 30-years ago, Kellermann is a premium brand, manufacturing innovative motorcycle lighting solutions and aftermarket accessories. The company pioneered the concept of ultra-compact, high-intensity LED turn signals, revolutionising custom motorcycle design by creating lights that are both highly visible and virtually invisible when switched off.

The Kellermann brand has genuine global Cult Status and is a worldwide recognised market leader. Its components are widely used by custom builders worldwide and as original equipment on elite vehicles.

GIVI EASY12 new generation side bags

Part of the newly updated EASY-T line of soft bags, the GIVI EASY12 offer 18 litres of storage capacity and are attached to the bike using Stealth, a retractable frame with minimal visual impact. They are available in left and right versions.

Stealth is a quick-release fastening system is designed to ensure practicality while minimising the visual impact of the frame on the motorcycle when the bags are not mounted - the lower part “disappears” into the cavity of the upper part when closed.

The standard equipment includes a removable waterproof inner bag, which protects the contents from rain and dust, while the extra cargo system with multi-purpose elastic band on the lid allows the rider to quickly secure small additional loads.

EASY12 bags are designed for the installation of optional ZR227 keys, which can be purchased separately and allow for secure fastening even when the bags are left unattended. Zipper pullers are also lockable for an additional level of protection. The kit is completed by reflective inserts for greater visibility on the road and a practical shoulder strap. The bags measure 420 x 290 x 160 mm and are available only in black.

Top Block

Small can still be safe

French motorcycle anti-theft specialist Top Block is celebrating its 40th anniversary this year and continues to expand its catalogue. One of its most recent new products is what it says is the smallest SRA-approved disc lock. 

The X65 disc lock is described as "smaller and lighter than other fitments, but is just as secure - and there is a disc lock suited to small brake discs with a 6.5 mm locking pin."

The X65 represents a "compact secondary anti-theft device that is easy to carry" for larger scooters and motorbikes. Fully SRA approved in France (Sécurité et Réparation Automobiles) and backed by a 5-year warranty, the popularity of disc locks has been growing in recent years, even surpassing the traditional U-locks that long represented the majority of sales at Top Block and across the wider market.

This trend has been driven by the popularity of alarmed disc locks - 2-in-1 anti-theft devices that are compact and easy to use. However, for some small-capacity two-wheelers, using a disc lock has remained problematic due to the small size and configuration of their brake discs, as is the case, for example, with the Honda PCX 125.

In response, Top Block took on the challenge and developed a pocket-size disc lock (48 × 34 × 61 mm) featuring a reinforced 6.5 mm pin capable of fitting through the holes of even the smallest brake discs while still achieving the essential SRA certification (Sécurité Réparation Automobile). Until now, no disc lock with a pin smaller than 10 mm had ever obtained SRA approval - an approval required by many insurance companies. The new X65 from Top Block therefore becomes the smallest SRA-approved disc lock on the market.

Easy to carry thanks to its compact size and light weight, the new X65 can fit into tight spaces under the seat or in a pocket, while also offering the option of mounting directly on the motorcycle using a dedicated holder. This makes it an ideal secondary security device for protecting a two-wheeler during short stops.

"Thanks to a rigorous design and the development of a new high-strength forged steel material, the lock features a single-piece body that provides exceptional structural rigidity. The component is then heat-treated and zinc-coated to ensure effective protection against corrosion and external elements.

"Its compact format, combined with the limited space available to access the reinforced pin once installed on the brake disc, makes attempted attacks more difficult. It is particularly hard to reach and therefore difficult to break, especially when positioned in areas that are less accessible to thieves."

The X65 disc lock also features a drill-resistant lock with multiple key combinations, supplied with two keys, as well as a reminder cable designed to prevent riding off while the lock is still in place.

Exan

Exan - KTM 790 Adventure

Milan based exhaust manufacturer Exan is offering two EURO 5+ homologated exhaust upgrade choices for the 2025 Euro 5+ KTM 790 Adventure.

The X-RALLY exhaust has rhomboid design muffler with a stainless-steel outlet and visible welding at the union - "embellished with a hint of retro styling. It is the ideal solution for those who want a gritty aesthetic combined with lively performance, especially at medium and high revs."

X-RALLY

It is lighter than the stock exhaust and available in four variants - carbon, titanium, stainless steel and black stainless steel - with slip-on connection to the original manifolds.

The Exan OV-RALLY is an oval-shaped muffler body with a look reminiscent of the vintage off-road aesthetic that is so popular at this time. "It is an extremely light exhaust, ideal for those who want agility and speed, especially in the 'turns and twisties'. It delivers a faster engine response, especially in the medium and high rev ranges.

OV-RALLY

"The stainless-steel union with visible welding that characterises other models in the Exan range, adds an aggressive tone detail to the overall design. Compared to the X-GP (another Exan exhaust) it differs in design geometry with an oval rather than round body, and a conical design end cap.

It is available in carbon, titanium, stainless steel and black stainless steel, and comes as a Slip-on silencer with connection to the original manifolds.

Supersprox

Special sprocket production – filling the Talon gap 

Supersprox has announced the development of new a production for small batches of sprockets. CEO DJ Maughfling contacted IDN recently to outline the backstory to this latest development. "Last year, Talon Engineering (Yeovil, UK) ceased trading and that has left a hole in the sprocket supply chain. 

"Talon was excellent at the production of unusual sprockets for a wide range of motorcycles and other sprocket driven vehicles. Talon was well known for its speedway sprockets but also produced small batches of bespoke sprockets for almost all types of vehicles. When Talon ceased trading, we put a lot of effort into the possibility of buying its tooling. 

"After intense negotiations we were able to acquire all the tooling for the production of engine sprockets, and it arrived at our main production plant in Poland in early February - where we are planning to start a special sprocket production department to fill the void.

"This work is not new for us. My father started the Supersprox business in Wales on the border with England, at a tiny village called Knucklas, back in 1959. We had a special sprocket service at the Wales factory up to 1998. 

"When I opened the first factory in Prague, Czech Republic, we could not continue making one offs or small batches and that was a loss for our industry. But this seems to be a good time to re-start special sprocket production once again. In the beginning the service will be for people who can order 10 parts or more of a type. That's going to be almost any sprocket, in any chain size and any tooth count. 

"We plan to extend the service in the future and produce single sprockets. One of the advantages of having a factory in Eastern Europe is the labour cost of course. I didn't come to Poland for the Pierogi. I came here for the lower cost and highly skilled workforce. 

Supersprox CEO DJ Maughfling

"In Western Europe, if your shoes are worn, you buy a new pair. In Eastern Europe, it's still possible to get your shoes repaired for a reasonable price. We can do the same with sprockets. Great quality at a reasonable price".
