Built to perform and customize like noting else. The Road Star S is one of the most customized air-cooled V-twins in the business... and with a god reason too. It simply looks good, due mostly to the classic appeal of that hardtail-looking hardware that goes with it. The Road Star S gets even more chrome switgear, front brake master cylinder, front forks and levers.

Milan Show: Moto2 tried and tested

Tue, 02 Nov 2010

The insanity of Moto2 doesn't seem like the right home for the elegance of the Rizoma brand. But the Rizoma ProGuard system has helped secure the levers of Toni Elias on his road to championship success in the inaugural Moto2 season. The example above was on an attractive Rizoma-enhanced BMW S1000RR, but the lever guards are not limited to sports bikes, they were also visible on Yamaha's FZ8.  The patented design can tilt up to 10 degrees providing full lever coverage and can be added by simply replacing the bike's existing bar-ends.
