2 WHEELED, PLANT POWERED!

Sadly tyres, or tires for our American chums, are not always vegan due to stearic acid being used in the moulding process.

The following brands have confirmed to us that their tyres are not manufactured this way and are therefore vegan friendly:

-Michelin

-Pirelli

-Metzeler

-Bridgestone

-Heidenau

It seems to be a common misconception that all motorcycle seats are made from leather. 

The reality is that most seats are in fact made of vinyl for cost and weatherproofing reasons, so this isn't a major issue.

Some premium motorcycle seats are made from leather, but if your seat is standard it will 99% likely be vinyl unless specified.

As always, check with the manufacturer to be 100% sure, but the likelihood is that your seat will not be made from leather.
