I checked out motorsports international. Their clothing and accessories section was very poor. It looked like they wanted to sell fast bikes but not to kit you out in safe gear.
They had gloves but only the short ones. None with wrist protection. Only 2 pairs of boots in stock. Pretty poor. Not much in the way of leathers either.
I can't get over the price of bikes over here(USA).$12000 for a Gixxer Thou. That's Euro 8000. I'd pay nearly double that in Ireland for a new GSXR1000.
I have to say, in general, America is a great country, I'd never leave Ireland, but you have absolutely everything here that someone would ever need.
I went to a firing range in NH on Friday. They just handed me a gloch, beretta, and M4 with a photo id. That's messed up. 3 Irish guys walk in off the street with absolutely no gun handling experience, and they give us guns. That's pretty messed up. I love it though. Cool country guys.
