New Delhi, 22 October, 2020: Royal Enfield, the global leader in the mid-size motorcycle segment, today announced the launch of an all-new line-up of CE certified riding jackets for riders based on multiple riding needs. Designed and carefully crafted for different weather conditions and terrains; the performance packed line-up of riding jackets is truly meant for enhancing the riding experience.
Keeping safety at the forefront Royal Enfield has ensured that these jackets meet global safety norms and are available at an accessible price. The range includes 5 jackets where the entire jackets are CE Certified with Class A protection under Personal Protective Equipment regulations. The jacket line-up offers comprehensive protection with the freedom to ride in both on and off road conditions. In addition to being CE certified the jackets carry armors from D30 and KNOX, most trusted internal impact protection armors. These armors also carry CE level one and level two armor certifications. This range of riding jackets has been thoroughly tested for abrasion resistance, impact protection, ergonomics, tear strength, seam strength, innocuousness and dimension stability.
Most of the riding gears that are being sold for their protective qualities only have their armours CE certified, instead of the entire garment being certified under CE. There is a misconception that CE certified armors and CE certified jackets are the same thing. It is important to understand that CE certified armors only certified for impact protection whereas a garment to be CE certified has to additionally undergo numerous other tests.
The riding jacket collection has been segregated based on different riding conditions and needs of the rider: City/short Rides, Highway Touring and High Altitude/All terrain range; priced at INR 4,950 up to INR 14,950 respectively. To aid the rider in selecting the right riding jacket Royal Enfield has created an interactive page on their website https://store.royalenfield.
Speaking about the newly launched Riding jacket range, Mr. Puneet Sood, Head – Apparel Business, Royal Enfield said, "Royal Enfield’s apparel & gear business is focused on enhancing the overall motorcycling experience for the riders with a clear focus on rider safety. The newly launched collection of riding jackets seamlessly integrates performance and endurance into products which are comfortable yet stylish for motorcyclists.
