Protective Gear Recommendations

Buying locally does have it's plus and minus values. Tires in the GWN are as good as gold to the dealer. That said, I just put new rubber on the 650. Went local to support small business and I know and trust them. Could have saved some money shopping across the border but if something is wrong with the tire after it is delivered I have to pay shipping to return it. So much for saving a buck or two. I would also have to pay for mounting and balancing again. I know my local dealer will take care of me with little fuss or bother. As for clothing we buy local or deal with deal with a reputable seller like New Enough. Their prices will make up for the outrageous taxes and tariffs at the border. We also check for shipping cost and type of shipping too. UPS has their own version of rape and pillage at the border. USPS works well if available.
