Default Long Beach Shops for Motorcycle Gear?

Hi Everyone,

I live in Toronto, Canada, and I'll be coming down to Long Beach in 2 weeks for a business trip. With the exchange rate being what it is, I would like to buy a leather 1 peice suit while I'm down there. I'm looking for shops that are near by my hotel (Westin Long Beach), but I'm having a hard time finding shops that stock the suit I'm looking for. So, the question is... Where can I purchase a Teknic Chicane 1-pc suit in Long Beach?

Thanks guys & gals, I really appreciate it!

Call ExtremeSupply in Signal hill and ask them to order it for you prior to your trip. They actually might have it in stock, not sure though. I believe they are the closest shop in long beach that sells sportbike gear besides Long Beach Motorsports and Bellflower Motorsports.

Awesome!!! I'll give try giving them a call this afternoon! Did you recommend ExtremeSupply for any reason in particular?

Many thanks,
Alan

I personally haven't purchased anything from them but I know people who have and they have no complaints. I've visited their shop/storage facility and they were very cordial with a lot of product. Basically the main reason I suggested ExtremeSupply is because they are local to Long Beach. They have a website that relatively only sells helmets but don't be deterred, they can order you anything you want. Also, I believe its cheaper if you pick up cash in hand. Or atleast thats what I've been told...

One other thing, they're not officially open on Saturdays and they aren't open on Sundays. So if you plan on picking something up on a Saturday, let them know in advance.

Custom 1 piece suits I think around $400 bucks, just get fitted while down here.

Yeah, i contacted Daniel for a custom suit, but it's around a 1 month lead time!

Update, i contacted ExtremeSupply, and they were pretty helpful for sure! I think i'm just going to pick up a suit on my way to the airport, since it's only 7 miles away from my hotel!

Thanks guys!
