Moneyless Posted May 26, 2012 Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 Hi! My first question.. I'm on the east side in Cleveland Heights and I was wondering if anyone knew of a good reputable shop to get gear or service? Specifically I'll need to get a helmet but I don't really know the area and am looking for a place with a decent selection where I can try a few on.Thanks!

snot Posted May 26, 2012 Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 welcome+1 for riders discount. I bought a helmet from them and love it! I also bought some other items for my bike and I am very happy with the service, price and delivery. http://ohioriders.net/showthread.php?t=87641 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helmutt Posted May 26, 2012 Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 and props to RidersDiscount, I havent found better prices or customer service. Try on some lids at a local dealer/vendor to discover your size and brand preference, then hit Nathan up at RD for the better deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conn-e-rot Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 WelcomeI used to recommend Ohio motorcylce to people but after the way the service manager carried on last time I was there I will never go back and will never recommend them to anyone again. Make the trek down to iron pony and you will have many options to try on then call riders discount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TenTwelve Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 I wish Breyley's had a better gear selection because I'd recommend them in a heart beat. There's Shadetree in Middlefield who has a bunch of stuff to try on and Just for Fun Honda is a couple doors down and actually has some stuff too. I'm right around the corner from ya. If you want someone to ride out there with ya let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magley64 Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Shadetree in middlefield isn't bad, state 8 in peninsula is pretty good sized too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony blaze Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Roush Motorsports in Medina has a good selection, prices aren't cheap though. If you're willing to ride a bit Pony Motorsports in Westerville near Columbus is the WalMart of mortorcycle stores. They dont have a large selection of bikes but they have every piece of gear on the planet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh1234 Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Hello from Lyndhurst (I grew up in Cleveland Heights).Ohio motorcycle is closest (address posted earlier in thread). I've been there and had good experiences.Rick Roush is a little further, and of course Iron Pony is down in Columbus, but will probably have the best ratings and recommendations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kennyb357 Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 I remember working for the biggest bike dealer in central Ohio about 6 years ago. They had the big 4 metrics on the floor, easily 150 bikes in there. ELEVEN helmets and 5 jackets. That dealership is a day care center now. Iron Pony has more helmets on the floor to try on than most helmet companies have in their entire warehouse. I've purchased all my lids there.

speedytriple Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Stay away from riders choice. many people have had bad service from them. I would say roush, or ohio motorcycle to try on helmets and jackets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsJack Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 Bought my last 6 helmets at Shadetree in Middlefield, my son goes down to Iron Pony for his. Always wear the helmet around the shop for 15-20 minutes before buying while looking at other stuff. Wouldn't consider buying online, I remember one helmet I liked but it was pinching one of my big ears a bit. I had them get another one of same helmet and same size out of stock and it was good to go. Being hand assembled they are all just a little bit different.
