Brixton Motorcycles: Owned by the Austrian based KSR Group (formerly known as Generic and owned by Christian and Michael Kirschenhofer, KSR is owner or distributor of several motorcycle once-famous and increasingly well-known E-bike brands, including Lambretta). Brixton is a contemporary/retro range of (currently) five 125 and two 250 cc motorcycles powered by 4-stroke air-cooled singles. Described as offering “throwback style” with “streetwise edge” and sitting right in the sweet spot of lightweight value and convincing, youth rider styling and price-points, features include CBS and EFi on the 125 range with EFi and ABS on the 250s; www.brixton-motorcycles.com MACNA: Designed and distributed by Dutch apparel specialist Splash Design, the award-winning MACNA riding apparel range is a feature-rich, high-tech program with some notable firsts to its name - not least the innovative ‘Night Eye’ technology - a patented approach to night riding visibility that sees a normal, grey motorcycle jacket light up in the headlights without the use of conventional high-visibility materials or vests. Instead, microscopic glass beads in the Night Eye fabric work like small mirrors and reflect the light right back where it came from - lighting the rider up from a long distance; www.macna.com Parts Europe: The Germany based distributor hosted some 20 or so vendors at its huge booth, including Drag Specialties staples such as S&S Cycle, Rinehart Exhausts, ICON apparel, Moose and Thor - this year has seen Drag Specialties and Thor celebrating their 50th anniversaries; www.dragspecialties.eu www.AMDchampionship.com AMERICAN MOTORCYCLE DEALER - NOVEMBER 2018 49
