What's a good shop to buy an alpinestars jacket from in Vancouver? Looking for a shop that stocks them in store so I can actually test fit it that also has good prices.

What kind of crazy deal? The jacket I'm after on revzilla is $480 right now. I think it's on sale on their site right now though. I prefer to buy in person though.

Nice! He did express interest in getting a lower cc bike for city riding and racing.

The maybe official quick motorcycle question/news not worthy of a new thread,...

For anyone unfortunate enough to own one, there has been a recall on the 2015 and 2016 Yamaha R1 for transmission problems.
