Alpinestars unveils the 2027 ALL TERRA collection. Last updated: October 1, 2026 2:55 pm Alpinestars unveils the 2027 ALL TERRA collection: A new generation of all-weather adventure gear for on-road and off-road exploration. Alpinestars advances its 2027 All Terra Collection with a new generation of all-weather protective gear engineered to give touring and adventure riders the protection, adaptability, and comfort to explore further across changing terrain, long-distance journeys, and technical off-road riding. Adventure riding can take riders through dramatic changes in elevation, terrain, temperature, and weather within a single day. Conditions can shift from cold and rain to heat and sun, from long highway stretches to demanding off-road terrain. The gear has to adapt with the ride. Built on decades of adventure riding development and extensive real-world testing with riders across thousands of kilometers and some of the world's most demanding terrain and conditions, the 2027 All Terra Collection is engineered for the changing demands of adventure riding. Highly adaptable constructions, laminated GORE-TEX and modular Drystar(R) waterproofing, direct ventilation, thermal insulation, and technical base layers work together to manage weather, airflow, moisture, and temperature, helping riders maintain comfort across long distances and changing conditions. - Advertisement - Amazon.co.uk Welcome to modern classic motorcycle news - kindle edition. At the center of the collection are three new all-weather adventure jacket-and-pants combinations: the highly adaptable Harok V2 Drystar(R) Jacket and Pants, the exploration-focused Arenis GORE-TEX Jacket and Pants, and the lightweight ST-7 V2 2L GORE-TEX Jacket and Pants, also available in dedicated Stella versions. Each brings a distinct approach to all-weather adventure riding, from highly modular construction and laminated GORE-TEX performance to lightweight all-weather touring. The range expands further with the dual-sport Maxdura Drystar(R) XF Laminated Pants, an expanded All Terra glove range, the new Tech 7 Enduro GORE-TEX Boots and CR-X GORE-TEX Shoes, and the introduction of A-Morph Technology within the All Terra Dual Sport protection range. The collection is completed by the AT 8 Merino Base Layer Collection, AT-9 Backpacks, and Buff(R) Peaks PrimaLoft(R) Neckwear, extending All Terra protection and performance across the gear, technical layers, and accessories that support the ride. TESTED IN THE HIMALAYAS Alpinestars took the 2027 All Terra Collection to the Himalayas, bringing together All Terra ambassadors Adam Riemann, Alexandra Reynolds, Jamie Robinson, Satya Oblette, and Tom Barrer to put the new gear to the test across one of adventure riding's most demanding landscapes. From high-altitude mountain passes and dusty valleys to heat, cold, and snow, the riders tested the collection across dramatic shifts in terrain, temperature, and weather - experiencing firsthand how the gear adapts as riding conditions change. Here's what the adventure riders have to say about the new 2027 All Terra line. "I love the evolution of the All Terra gear. The Arenis Jacket and Pants are a great fit for exploring hard terrain like we rode in the Himalayas. I love that they have enduro styling and ventilation, combined with that more durable, weatherproof construction for the big highway miles. This will be the perfect winter hard adventure kit for me in Australia." - Adam Riemann - Advertisement -

Stark VARG SM Sköll silently breaks a record that stood since 2012. September 21, 2026 An electric supermoto has lapped the abandoned 1923 banked oval at Terramar faster than an Audi R8 LMS ever did: 41.888 seconds. Built in just 300 days in 1923, the concrete oval at Autòdrom de Sitges-Terramar hosted racing for barely a year before being left to nature for a century. On 10 September 2026, the timing systems were switched on again, and the machine that set the fastest mark did so in complete silence. On Thursday 10 September, Stark Future rider Jonas Skovby lapped the two-kilometer oval in 41.888 seconds on a Stark VARG SM Sköll. That beats the 42.600 set by Carlos Sainz in an Audi R8 LMS in 2012, a margin of 0.712 seconds. The bike is a road-legal production motorcycle with no gearbox, no clutch and no exhaust. The attempt was a joint project between Stark Future, Alpinestars and DC Shoes. It was staged under permit, following a process with the circuit's owners and local authorities that took the better part of a year. Terramar is among the oldest purpose-built banked ovals still standing, and one of the least used. It has been effectively abandoned since the 1920s and is now earmarked for redevelopment. The record that stood. Terramar opened on 28 October 1923 as Spain's first permanent racing circuit. The banking is steep enough to be awkward to walk up. Albert Divo won the inaugural Spanish Grand Prix there in a Sunbeam at an average of 96.91 mph, ahead of Louis Zborowski's Miller. The builders almost immediately ran out of money, contractors went unpaid, and the circuit never hosted another international race. In 2012, Red Bull returned. Two-time World Rally Champion Carlos Sainz lapped the oval in an Audi R8 LMS in 42.600 seconds. That time stood for fourteen years, and it was the one Stark came to beat. The lap. Over a two-kilometer lap, 41.888 seconds works out to an average of a little over 172 km/h. That was achieved on concrete that has not been resurfaced in a century and has endured a hundred years of weather. The bike was the Stark VARG SM Sköll, the 500-unit limited edition announced on 16 September. In full ALPHA specification it produces 80 hp and 914 Nm at the rear wheel, with single-speed drive and a weight of 123.4 kg (272 lb). It ran straight out of the box. The single-speed drivetrain is an unusual advantage on a circuit like this. With no shifting there is no interruption: the bike simply builds and holds its speed. What it gives up is top speed, but on a two-kilometer oval the stopwatch seems willing to accept that trade. The rider. Jonas Skovby rode the record lap. The Swedish Supermoto champion and freestyle rider moved from competitive track racing into a career as a world-renowned urban street riding content creator. "Slamming through a century-old track at 200 km/h means you are constantly on the edge, either about to be launched off a concrete wall or losing the front tire by a hair," Skovby said. "With zero time to react or fix a mistake at those speeds, all I could do was completely trust the bike. It was an absolutely insane adrenaline rush and easily the wildest thing I have ever done."
Asian PE firms circle €1 billion racing brand Alpinestars. September 15, 2026 at 8:44 AM GMT+2 Updated on September 15, 2026 at 8:52 AM GMT+2 Takeaways by bloomberg aisubscribe.
