And the winners are....!!!

The local newspaper "Kävlinge Nya" is now publishing the winning entries in our summer contest. Our question was, why the contestants love to drive a motorcycle and what it means to them. Maybe not so easy to translate into plain English, but the reasons and winning motivations are just a wonderful mixture of feelings. The feeling of freedom, joy, passion, romance and humour!

Each of the five winners will now add a feeling of comfort and a new sense of security to their motorcycle tours.

KORI wants to congratulate the five worthy winners to there very own KORI back protector!

Plastic back protector recalled!

Due to risk of age-exhaustion of the hard plastic on the chest and back protection from the brand Ride North, all protectors are recalled from the market.

When the plastic is old and dry it risks to crack when subjected to force, the protection will then loose its function. Therefore all protectors are recalled and should not be used. For more information go here! 

This was one of the major risks that we discussed when we where in the developement of the KORI protection… we did not know by then that the hard plastic protectors included the risk, we just knew that the aging of hard plastics is extremely hard to control…  I just hope that the cracking in these protectors were detected in a test, rather than a crash…

Roller skating with a special back pack..

Our friend Jonas has tried KORI when roller skating! KORI does not disturbe the movements of the arms, very important as he ride with ski-poles. KORI is also good way to include a camelback on the inlines tour.  

Delightful protection

We would like to share some words from our friend Marie who won her KORI at the summer-bike-meet at Hanksville Farm. She has been able to use the protector during a trip down the south-west coast in Sweden for the yearly meeting of YCC (Yamaha custom club) at First camp in Tylösand.

Marie sent us a greeting:
"The protector is incredibly comfortable, you do not feel it!!!! It is smooth, supple and absolutely wonderful!!!! :-)"

She also shared her thoughts on Facebook: 

”I am wearing the KORI-protection I won at ”The Farm”, now it will show what it is worth. And it is wonderfully comfortable, fits like a glove! I am very positive to it - big plus is that it can be used to backpack so you can to bring all things when you rest and do not want to leave the jacket and stuff on the bike. I give it the highest grade! :-) "

The KORI protector swallows a lot and a little more.... :-) "
