Title: Seattle: Armored jacket wanted. Where to buy?
Post by: Caffeine on May 18, 2007, 04:50:36 PM
I'm asking for someone else: 

Where can you buy an armored LEATHER jacket in Seattle?   What shops are good, what shops should be avoided?

:cheers:

In the City or in the general area?


In the city, the pickin' are slim... But, there's University Honda, Aurora Suzki... Um... That other one up 99 (I know, helpful)...

There's also Renton Motorcycles, Lynnwood Cyclebarn.

- I've only been in University Honda once, but they were nice to me.
- Aurora Suzuki is usually pretty helpful... And they just expended their building and their stock.
- Lynnwood Cyclebarn has always been great... And they're huge... Just far away.
- Renton Motorcycles are OK in the accessories department.  If you can hang on to a salesguy, then they're usually helpful.  I'm not a huge fan of that place though...  BUT, they're open on Sundays.
- Eastside Ducati Suzuki (Eastside Motorsports?) is ok... I like their shop...  There's a Kawi dealer right up the street from there, but it's kinda small... 
- I-90 Motorsports in Issaquah.  Cool shop, enough gear, but their hours SUCK (Close at 5:00)... And they're closed on Sun-Mon.


There are lots of other small shops around Seattle and the Seattle Area...
