    Best accessories shop?

    Looking to make a couple purchases in protective gear, but every manufacturer seems to have different sizing. Looking for opinions on Denver shops with the best selection of gear/accessories. I need to find a good place to try some stuff on so I can order online. Im interested in the more race-oriented makes (Joe Rocket, Alpinestars, Dainese, Sidi, etc).

    Planning to toss everything on my Yamaha card, so options are limited afaik, just looking for a place that keeps a well-stocked inventory so I can try stuff on and get sizing. I was planning to check that place out though since you mentioned it on the Mt Evans ride.

    www.sportbiketrackgear.com has a lot of videos on alpinestars sizing or you can also just call them. I found that they're pretty spot on.

    I got kick-ass pricing on all my gear here buying the stuff on close-outs. I saved over $500 on my A-Stars 2-pc suit, boots, and gloves about 5 years ago! LOVE the A-Stars gear!

    Fay Meyers to try stuff on.

    No taxes, low prices, fast shipping, great customer support, coupons included with shipment for future purchases.

    If you want to go local, Jim at TFOG gives a CSC discount and shows it on the bill. Great guy.

    Why not give the local shops a chance to give you a fair price? If we buy locally, we are helping guarantee that there will be shops for us to try things on, for the future.

    Still gotta pay tax. For a 200 dollar jacket or a 500 dollar helmet, its tough to beat online.

    I would love to help local shops, but only a small number of local dealers accept the Yamaha card which is what Im trying to buy with. Unless y'all know something I don't.

    Local shops FTW. As most of them know about CSC and will give you a discount if you mention the club, that may offset the taxes anyway.

    Check with Fay Myers. They are a local Yamaha dealer too. Maybe Paul can chime in on this one?

    Unfortunately we are not a Yamaha dealer. That is why I haven't said anything, we have a good selection of Alpinestars and Dainese but I cant take the Yamaha card.

    Sorry, my mistake. I must have been confused because I bought an R6 (used) from you guys. Thanks for clearing that up.
