Breezy, ultra-light and ready for any off-road adventure: Touratech presents the new MX-Wild enduro glove with many practical features.
A solid riding technique and superior body control are crucial requirements for successful off-road motorcycling. In order to be able to transmit even the finest impulses to the vehicle, there must be a perfect connection between man and machine at all interfaces.
This is where the new Touratech MX-Wild comes into action. The extensive experience of the Touratech Racing factory team has been incorporated into the development of this enduro glove, which is designed for ambitious off-road use. Building on its successful predecessor model, this further development offers numerous practice-orientated features.
Thanks to its soft and stretchy material, the MX-Wild fits snugly on the hand without creases, while the absence of superfluous seams ensures a pressure-free fit. The lightweight and well-ventilated material ensures a comfortable fit even at high temperatures. Generous silicone prints on the index and middle fingers ensure a reliable grip on the hand levers. The roughened back of the thumb is perfect for cleaning cross goggles while riding. The particularly stressed area between the thumb and index finger is reinforced with a double layer of material.
The new fastening strap is significantly more robust than the previous model to ensure even more reliable protection against accidental stripping of the glove. The cuff made of high-quality neoprene ensures a comfortable fit on the wrist. The synthetic leather palm combines very good grip values with long durability.
The new Touratech MX-Wild cuts an excellent figure both on racy off-road excursions and on desert stages. The lightweight enduro glove is available in four colour schemes and seven sizes from S to 4XL. Item no. 500-5100 ff.

3Dcal.com proudly introduces the world's first interactive 3D graphic design system specifically designed for motorcyclists. Our platform goes beyond traditional visualization techniques by offering an immersive design experience directly on a 3D model of your bike. This innovative tool empowers riders to unleash their creativity and design custom decals and wraps without requiring any professional design expertise.
Our user-friendly system provides real-time visualization, allowing you to see exactly how your designs will appear on true-to-scale 3D models of your motorcycle. This ensures precision and accuracy, so your vision translates perfectly onto your bike. Beyond personal customization, 3Dcal.com also fosters a vibrant community, inviting riders, brands, and artists to collaborate and share their passion for motorcycles.
The intuitive interface of 3DCal.com, based on the Twyst platform from StickerStoke, simplifies the customization process, enabling users to visualize their designs in real-time on true-to-scale 3D models of their motorcycles. This unique feature ensures that riders can see exactly what their concepts will look like before committing to a purchase. The platform caters to various motorcycle enthusiasts, particularly those who seek both protection and personalization for their bikes.
3DCal.com is not just a tool for individual customization; it is a community hub where riders, top brands, artists, and charitable organizations can collaborate. By integrating brand logos and supporting non-profits, such as the Motorcycle Relief Project—an organization that recently collaborated with 3DCal.com to create a custom decal set raising funds for veterans—the platform fosters a sense of community and shared passion among motorcyclists. This collaborative spirit is a key differentiator in an industry where customization options have historically been limited to pre designed templates.
The current market for custom motorcycle decals and wraps has primarily focused on traditional design methods, often requiring riders to seek expensive graphic design services or settle for generic templates. Existing competitors typically offer limited customization options that restrict users' creative freedom. In contrast, 3DCal.com provides a comprehensive solution that allows users to express their individuality while ensuring high-quality production and accurate representation of their designs on real-life motorcycles. With the rapid growth of adventure and offroad motorcycling, 3DCal.com is uniquely positioned to meet this demand by offering custom, protective decals specifically designed to withstand rugged conditions while allowing riders to personalize their bikes. There's an increased demand for protective decals and customization. The global off-road motorcycle accessories market is projected to reach US$ 3,322.0 million by the end of 2034. Over the next decade, the market is expected to grow 1.6X times, according to Fact.MR.
With an emphasis on user-friendliness, 3DCal.com aims to make the design process accessible to all motorcycle enthusiasts, regardless of their artistic skill level. As the company continues to expand its offerings, it plans to introduce additional motorcycle models and accessories, further enriching the customization experience for riders. This initiative not only enhances the personalization of bikes but also promotes a culture of creativity and collaboration within the motorcycle community.
But 3DCal.com is more than just about aesthetics. These decals are engineered to provide an extra layer of protection against scratches and the damaging effects of UV light, ensuring your motorcycle stays looking its best for years to come. With 3DCal, riders can express their personal style without breaking the bank, all while adding a layer of durability to their prized possession.
Court Rand, founder of 3DCal.com stated, "This platform is a game changer for motorcyclists everywhere. Riders can now unleash their creativity and customize their motorcycles effortlessly without the need for design expertise. Our 3D graphic design system elevates the personalization experience through proprietary rendering technology and precision scaling algorithms, enabling users to see their custom decals on lifelike 3D models with unmatched accuracy, allowing users to visualize their unique designs on their bikes like never before."

Perfect for off-road and short trips or when travelling with soft luggage: With the new mounting kit, the practical Touratech toolbox can now also be mounted directly on the frame tail of the BMW R 1300 GS - without the need for a pannier rack.
Slim yet spacious, positioned close to the vehicle and perfectly accessible: this is the Touratech tool box for the BMW R 1300 GS. With a volume of 4.2 litres, it offers enough space even for an excellently sorted professional tool set or holds a selection of important spare parts for long journeys. However, the splash-proof storage space is also very welcome on short trips or off-road excursions, for example to store first-aid materials or a breakdown kit within easy reach. Thanks to its well thought-out design and clever mix of stainless steel and plastic materials, the Touratech tool box is also extremely robust.
The extra-large opening is practical and allows easy loading and unloading. If required, the lid can also be removed completely. A safety catch ensures that it does not get lost. The lock, which is of course available with the same key as other Touratech products, is protected against dust and splash water by a cap, ensuring that it remains smooth-running even with frequent off-road use.
New mounting kit: mounting now also possible without luggage rack!
Previously only available for use on the stainless steel carrier of the Touratech ZEGA Evo aluminium pannier systems, the Touratech tool box is now also available for mounting directly on the rear of the frame. This is made possible by the new mounting kit. This is Touratech's response to a frequently expressed request from the community and allows the tool box to be used without a luggage rack. This makes the box even more versatile, which should please users of soft luggage systems or sporty adventure riders.
Precisely laser-cut from three-millimetre-strong stainless steel, the mounting kit allows the boxes to be fitted directly to the rear frame on the left and right with a precise fit and high strength. Thanks to the careful positioning of the boxes, there are no restrictions when getting on the bike or for comfort on the pillion seat.
This mounting kit is now available for the BMW R 1300 GS. There is also a variant for mounting on the left-hand side of the R 1200 GS (LC), the R 1250 GS and the corresponding Adventure models.
