Best Gear Stores Near Boston

    Best Gear Stores Near Boston

    New to the forum and riding in New England for that matter.

    I've got to pick up a new leather jacket and have been to a handful of stores around Boston (Brockton Cycle, Riverside, Motomarket, and a Duc dealer in Shrewsbury) without much luck.

    Anyone have a recommendation for places with a great selection within an hours ride of Boston?

    Was thinking that New Hampshire might not even be a bad idea to side step the sales tax.

    TIA
    = awesome

    Take a ride down to Vanson (http://www.vansonleathers.com/) in Fall River. They make the best jackets, in lots of styles, and are local industry on top of it all.

    What are you looking for?

    I'd try also Moto Market in Acton.
    motomkt.com

    They are a Dainese, RevIt and Furygan dealer.
    Plus is just a nice place to hang out.
