“From a young age I have always recognized Arai as the safety and comfort leader in the helmet industry, so when the opportunity to wear them came up I jumped at the chance, the Fit and vision for me is perfect and the advanced air flow system In the helmet makes fogging and heat in the helmet non existent. Arai’s experience and technology is still the industry leader in race helmets” he said.

Glenn is the conduit to entertain, educate, create and connect. His passion to ride motorcycle started at the age of 4 but quickly moved into racing. At 8 yo he started to compete in Motocross and started to win multiple Junior MX championships. 

His main focus is on learning, developing and adapting so with his team he can win.

“I have every faith in the Ducati Panigale V4R, the team, personal and all the products they are choosing to use. I can’t wait for 2022 to begin” says Staring.

“Racing in Arai helmets is the dream for me. I couldn’t be happier to have the support of this well known manufacturer with an enormous history of being the helmet of choice for the world’s top riders. When selecting a helmet, there are many things that are important, like crash testing and safety standards, the quality of the materials in the shell, the fit and the energy absorption of the EPS foam.”



“Then for specific racing use, the ventilation, field of view and antifog capacity for racing in the rain, are all points to consider. Arai is a premium brand that excel in every one of these requirements.” he said.


Bryan Staring – Career Highlights:

  • 2004 125GP Australian Champion
  • 2009 Australian Supersport Champion
  • 2010 Australian Superbike Champion
  • World Superstock 1000 Race Winner – 2012
  • Former MotoGP Rider – 2013
  • Former WSBK Rider – 2014

The RX-7V represents the summit of Arai’s knowledge, experience and know-how in helmet technology. With a PB-SNC² outer shell, the revolutionary VAS (“Variable Axis System”) visor system and a significant increased smoother area around the temples, the RX-7V offers the new benchmark in the premium helmet segment.

From the anti-microbial material liner with an even slimmer frame, to the ducts, improved diffuser and the integrated Air Channels, every part shows the attention to detail that is so typical for Arai. Arai has continually improved the “glancing off” performance by learning from real scenarios.

Thanks to the stronger, smoother shell and VAS, the RX-7V is closer to the ideal lid shape than ever. With VAS, the visor mounting position is lowered 24mm in pursuit of the ideal smoother shape that raises the ability of glancing off energy. As a result, this has made it possible for the shell to be completely smooth above the test line of the Snell standard.

After winning the 2021 Riders’ Championship, Pata Yamaha’s Toprak Razgatlioglu switches from his traditional #54 to plate #1 for 2022, alongside team mate Andrea Locatelli. After six years at the top, Jonathan Rea switches back to #65 for the year ahead at Kawasaki Racing Team WorldSBK as he looks to reclaim the title in the chase for a seventh crown. Once again, Rea will be joined by Alex Lowes who will be hoping to bounce back from an injury-hit 2021 season.

The BMW Motorrad WorldSBK Team will run another new line-up in 2022 as Scott Redding joins the team alongside Michael van der Mark. It means the team will be on their third different line-up in as many years to compete on the BMW M 1000 RR.

Both Honda and Ducati have undergone rider line-up changes throughout the winter as well. Alvaro Bautista sensational returns to the Aruba.it Racing – Ducati for 2022, alongside Michael Ruben Rinaldi, with the Spaniard hoping he can replicate the form he showed when he first joined WorldSBK with Ducati in 2019. Rinaldi will embark on his second campaign with the factory Ducati squad, hoping to add to his three wins from 2022.

Team HRC will have an all-rookie line-up in 2022 after bringing in Iker Lecuona and Xavi Vierge from MotoGP and Moto2 respectively to compete on the CBR1000RR-R machine, with Team HRC looking to add to their podium tally from 2021 and claim a first victory since their return as a full-factory outfit.

Xavi's teammate Iker Lecuona was also out setting impressive times while tweaking all the new technology on his Honda.

Like at BMW, there has been an expansion of the satellite team as MIE Racing Honda Team, with Leandro ‘Tati’ Mercado returning for a second season at the team and Hafizh Syahrin joining the squad.

There is a new team on the 2022 grid as Yamaha Motoxracing join the Championship having previously competed in WorldSSP and WorldSSP300. They will run Spanish rider Isaac Viñales in 2022, after he made the switch from Orelac Racing VerdNatura; his place will be taken by Czech rider Oliver König. As well as teams, two riders have made the switch from WorldSSP to WorldSBK. Philipp Oettl joins Team GoEleven for 2022 while Luca Bernardi will become the first rider to compete in WorldSSP300, WorldSSP and WorldSBK when he takes to the grid with Barni Spark Racing Team.

Fourteen nationalities have been confirmed for 2022, up from 12 on the entry list in 2021. San Marino will be represented for the first time since Alex De Angelis in 2017 when Bernardi takes his spot on the grid. For Malaysia, Syahrin will be the country’s first full-time representative on the grid and the first since Cletus Adi Haslam at Johor in 1993. The 23 riders on the grid will compete for five manufacturers: four will ride BMW bikes and another four on Honda machinery.

Gaerne GP1 Evo Boots
Made from lightweight materials and a comfortable yet sturdy structure, the GP1 Evo
boots are perfect for those who are looking to upgrade their racing boots.

You can pick the GP1 Evo’s up in two different colour schemes for an RRP of $599.95.

Gaerne say the GP1 Evo is the ultimate racing boot from their research centre, developed in cooperations with professional riders.

Made of carbon composite, the GP1 evo is lightweight and strong, the carbon composite also allows the foot to move without compromising flexibility and prevents hyper extension or compression. Along with the premium materials is a high-wear resistant magnesium toe slider to ensure that the boots will last you a long time.

There’s plenty of technology packed into these boots to keep you comfortable and safe while out on the track or on the road.

A non-deformable polyurethane heel cup has also been added, this is protected by that replaceable low-friction magnesium slider. The anti-shock heel feature an internal comfort enhancing decompression zone, located between the inside and sole.

If you’re interested in the GP1 Evo boots, you can head to the Gaerne website here. If you are interested in purchasing a pair, contact Cassons and they will find a store that stocks them near you or direct you to an online purchasing system.
