We have been in the mail-order business since 1994; initially selling just collectible model cars and motorsport T-shirts. About 10 years ago, we started to offer a few bits of proper motorcycle wear to those customers who had bought Foggy, Sheene and Rossi merchandise from us. This proved to be a popular addition to the range and so, in 2011, we set up Motolegends.
Although, on our Motolegends website, we still offer merchandise, books, DVDs, and some motorcycle related gift products, our core offering is protective wear. So we sell helmets, boots, gloves, jackets, pants, suits, base layers, armour, and a wide array of rider accessories. The brands we sell tend to be the more prestigious and stylish ones the market has to offer, many of which are exclusive to us in the UK.

Although a helmet is a mandatory requirement for riding a motorcycle, your choice of jacket is arguably the most important decision you have to make as far as apparel is concerned. Safety is the paramount concern, and so abrasion resistance is a prime consideration. But these days a textile motorcycle jacket can be just as effective as leather in this respect.
Riding a motorcycle in the summer heat in a protective motorcycle shirt is a really comfortable option. Here at Motolegends we stock the very latest in motorcycle riding shirts from some of the best brands. Some are single layer, some are lined. All of them offer protection and comfort and have that cool, vintage and cafe-racer look.
It is probably fair to say that the manufacturers do not cater for lady motorcyclists to quite the extent that they should do. It is probably harder to create flattering women's motorcycle jackets than it is to create attractive jackets for men. But most manufacturers still offer two or three ladies' styles in their ranges.
Bering is a very successful French motorcycle clothing brand. The company produces products in just about every sector of the market, from racing and adventure riding to commuting and urban riding. We at Motolegends do not carry the entire Bering range.
Rather, we have cherry-picked just a small number of Bering's products, including motorcycle jackets, that we feel stand out, and which offer features and facilities that cannot be found in other ranges.

Furygan is the premier French maker of motorcycle protective wear. The company started out making motorcycle gloves, but today they produce just about everything the motorcyclist might need. Furygan makes motorcycle jackets to suit just about every kind of rider and every kind of bike.
And whilst their textile jackets are very technical and highly regarded, we personally tend to be of the view that Furygan's leather jackets are their strong point.The company is particularly sophisticated in the way it selects, grades and cuts its leather. Their computerised cutters mean that only the best parts of the hide are used; damaged areas of the skins are automatically discarded.

I have had motorbikes for the last 30 years which means I have visited a few motorbike shops in a few countries in my life and I can confidently say that Motolegends has been - by far - the best experience I ever had in a shop.
As I came in I was greeted, offered a cup of tea and asked what is what I was looking for. I was ‘assigned’ Sean, who after asking a few more questions, quickly grasped what I was looking for. He was able to offer me a variety of options, all of which were spot on, and he helped me choose. You never feel pushed for time and you never feel pushed for the most expensive

Puts the rest of the cycle shops to shame. Seriously. Price match. Good, honest video reviews. Good kit. Good ship times (even at Christmas). You can't go wrong here. Good returns policy if it doesn't fit/is not quite right.
Watch some of his videos to get a flavour of how much he knows/enjoys his job.

Treated myself to a Belstaff jacket , travelled to Guildford to the shop as I think I’m right in saying they have the largest stock in the country , and I wanted to be certain of the correct fit and colour, guys were brilliant and never “sold” it to me and let me make up my own mind with no pressure . Also got a pair of rokker jeans which again… they made sure that they fitted me correctly and did a free alteration of shortening the leg length , they are a good bunch and will spend as much time as you want answering questions and helping you out with guidance . Will be

From my first purchasing experience with Motolegends, I can highly recommend them. Excellent website. Huge range of products.
I returned a pair of boots which I just didn’t like the look of ‘in the flesh’ and these were exchanged for a different boots manufacturer in the same style/format at my request rather than a refund option. Very happy with the replacements. The customer service was second to none. Prompt, understanding and courteous communications. Delivery next day after ordering. Returns easily done. Sets the standards especially in these days of increased buying on-line with the

I was recommended to Motolegends by a dear late friend of mine. Today has to be one of the most pleasant shopping experiences I have had when buying and trying on motorcycle clothing. The customer service and range of clothing brands is fantastic. Thank you to all the staff at Motolegends and for the brew on arrival 👍👌

Fantastic retailer...so knowledgeable, thoughtful and helpful. Price guarantee with free delivery, on protective gear, & easy returns.
I love watching Chris and his hat on YouTube, giving an honest appraisal of motorcycle gear. I make many of my bigger purchases from Motolegends and will come back again.
I'm currently enjoying my new Belstaff jacket - it went through a hailstorm on its maiden voyage without a murmur...
Regrettably I will never get to taste their delicious motorcycle shaped shortbread biscuits because I live at the other end of the country but I can use my imagination!

First time in the shop . A truly wonderful experience.
Sean and the team helped myself and my partner get fully kitted out in the right gear for our needs . Despite spending a lot more time ( and £ 😄😄 ) than we originally intended , nothing was a problem.
A great credit to the team who were all very friendly and helpful, but a special mention has to go to Sean who really went the full nine yards .
We look forward for many years of faithful wear from our new kit , all thanks to Motolegends.
Cheers guys and girls .
