Side note...
Maybe all of the knowledgeable sales folks were up at Laconia (which is not only possible, but likely)... but Maaaaaaaaaaan the customer service was total shite. I had a few questions about their 2-piece combos... some simple questions about break-in, fit, etc. I was essentially dying to spend $500 and I wound up leaving with a wallet full of cash and no leather. The two girls in there appeared to not only know next to nothing about motorcycles, but next to nothing about leathers either. In defense of one of the young ladies, she *was* trying... and somewhat friendly. The other was a total F'n hostile disaster. Really disappointing. My favorite quote from the trip was when I asked the disaster how much a pair of pants cost (prices not marked).... her EXACT reply was: "Yeah, we don't got no prices on nuthin'"
Um.... riiiiight.... hence the question.....
I reply: "I noticed... that's why I'm asking..."
Her: "They're like $500."
Me: "They're *like* $500, or they *are* $500?"
Her: in a huff... puts the magazine down and checks the computer... turns out they're *like* $539.
I thanked her, put the pants back on the rack and walked out.
