Hi guys,

I am coming over to LA on business next month and want to take home some goodies. Could any of you LA locals fill me in on a couple of good bike accessory stores for me to frequent? I am looking at some new riding gear, boots etc...and perhaps even some trick stuff for my SP3.

Thanks very much in advance.

T

PS I will probably be staying around Santa Monica

Chaparral Motorsports in San Bernandino is the best place to go for gear in LA. Maybe the best in the US. They don't carry Triumph, however, so goodies for the S3 may be hard to come by.

I agree about Chaparral, lots of riding gear, just don't expect to find much for the S3.

If you make the trip to San Bernardino to go to Chaparral, stop by Doug Douglas motorcycles. A little mom and pop shop in san berdoo that carries Triumphs. I don't think they have much aftermarket stuff, but they have more Triumph accessories and clothing than I would expect for such a small shop. But try to go when doug is there - he'll show you his 650 BSA dirt tracker that he still races.
