Author Message   Codename_loki Posted on Friday, February 06, 2009 - 02:55 pm:        If anyone here knows of the best place/places to see and try on gear for sizing in Houston, I'd appreciate it!   Boogiman1981 Posted on Friday, February 06, 2009 - 03:06 pm:        http://www.cyclegear.com/store_locations.cfm?State =TX we have 2 in my town in florida. they have a decent selection and decent folks to help   Codename_loki Posted on Friday, February 06, 2009 - 03:15 pm:        Cool! There's one about 6 miles away from my house! I had no idea! Thanks Man!   Hellgate Posted on Friday, February 06, 2009 - 04:16 pm:        I agree. The shop in Austin is first rate. Super friendly and know their stuff.   Zack3g Posted on Friday, February 06, 2009 - 07:04 pm:        Cycle gear is good stuff, at least the shop here is.   Adman Posted on Tuesday, February 10, 2009 - 04:44 pm:        Honda of Houston and Houston Motorsports are also excellent places in Houston to check out gear. Its probably not a bad idea to occasionally buy something while your using them as your sizing source. Matthew   Codename_loki Posted on Wednesday, February 11, 2009 - 01:44 am:        Thanks Adman. I can appreciate the local retailer, but, tell me this... Why would I spend $400.00 of my own hard earned cash on a helmet, $200 to 300 more on a jacket etc when far more aggressive pricing is just a click away. Do you work for the Honda dealer, or are you just volunteering my cake?   Adman Posted on Wednesday, February 11, 2009 - 12:00 pm:        Codename_loki...I dont work for any retailer, just my sense of fairness no more no less. I am not suggesting you pay retail for high dollar items. I dont either. I do believe that the dealer is providing me with a service when I go in and try on an Arai Helmet and then buy it on the internet. I choose to purchase items that dealers have in stock when I am just leaving a few dollars on the table. I wouldnt consider volunteering your cake.

BTW, I was in the Honda dealer this after... Decent selection of gear and bikes. I didn't realize they dealt KTM, BMW, Kawi and Honda. Too bad a couple of the guys over there were douche bags and had something to say about Buell under their breath. Losers. Like I said in the shop today, if you got somethin to say, say it don't be a puss* and say it under your breath.
