Motorbike and Camping store's in Southern California???

Hi,

I will be landing in Los Angales California on the 21st of June and will have a few days down time while waiting for my bike to get here.

Do any of you know where I can get quality camping gear, dry-bags, travel cup and a few more bits?

Also looking for a MC shop, for a new lid and gloves.

Will be heading for Mexico within a week of arrival, any one heading that way?

For camping gear, go to REI. REI – Top-Brand Outdoor Clothing, Footwear & Gear for Spring Adventures

REI is the best for quality and selection. Do you have transport on arrival? If so head for Chaparral Motorsports in San Bernardino or Malcolm Smith's in Riverside. Hour and a half out of LA, but both a great one-stop-shop for gear. Wide selection....LA has London , big city pricing. There is also a big dealer in the vicinity of LAX, but high priced. If you have trouble bike-wise, my brother owns a mobile bike repair including a dyno. Let me know and I'll hook you up....cheers, Bill

I will rent a car for a couple of days, so will get to have a look at those stores.

If I need any bike work done , I will be in touch
