    Hey all!
    how you doin'?
    A little bit about me:
    http://www.scootershack.co.uk/viewtopic ... highlight=

    I'm coming to London in November for few days and by the time i'm there
    i want to buy some gear cause here in Israel its very expensive...
    so i need recommendations of stores that sell helmets, jackets and exhausts
    i think i'll go for a shoei helmet and an alpinestars jacket good choice?
    about the exhausts, will i go wrong with scorpion? or compromise with Leo vince?
    my budget is 600€

    sorry to bother you and for my bad English :(

    Thank you and have a nice day!
    :beer:

    cant help you so much with shops, i know that most of the people on here wont suggest you buy an exhaust from a shop as most of them are bandits out to get a few extra bucks.

    but scorpion dont make an exhaust for runner 50s so if you're looking for an exhaust you should try a laser x pro, as it is nice and chrome and performs really well!

    shoei lid is a good idea, same with alpinestar jacket

    you could go leo vince if you wanted to, its all about money and preference.

    If you think Israel is expensive, then you'll be in for a shock in london. It will be alot more expensive than what it is in Israel.

    harpers is a good shop, dlt with them before. also try shops like Hein Gericke and J&S Accessories for your clothing.

    ps - stick with alpinestar and arai :pimp:

    they make them for 50's, so might do them for runner 50's.
