Commonly used websites for purchases and meetups?

Post by dustin91 »

Hey all,
Being quite new to the forum (and scooting in general), I thought it might be helpful to have a list of all the different websites that people use either to purchase aftermarket products or to find a meet-up point.

http://www.powerbypcx.com gear
http://www.revzilla.com in the US, and
http://www.scooter.meetup.com communal rides.

I'll see something in a thread and forget to write it down, and then want to go back to it later but to no avail!

Anyone interested in adding to this list?

I like this idea. When I was new to riding I wish I knew of recommended places to shop, or at least the very names of shops. Let's see, two good stores are mentioned already. Here's two more: http://www.motorcyclegear.com
http://www.compacc.com
And for cycle wear and gear reviews:

You don't.
But you do use them to save stuff for later which is what the op was struggling with.

I do save all the site addresses, but the intent was to find new sites that other members have used and trust.

I'm wondering if anyone ever used this auxiliary gas tank ( :? not that I will be anytime soon), but thought I'd inquire/share this link just the same. They appear well built for that special journey you might be planning or even a super journey like member pozo took: "Across the U.S. and Back" (so impressed by him ;)
While there, check out their other related products too, geez.....this stuff looks battle ready!

Funny... I have something that looks *exactly* like that, but it's most often used at the occasional sporting event, or on Halloween night when corralling a dozen 10 year olds on the block, and it ain't filled with regular!
