Default motorcycle store in Georgia?

Hey guys,

I know its been a while since I've been on but I've been at the Infantry Officer school down here at fort benning in GA. I'm wondering if there are any good motorcycle stores around here where I can get my girlfriend fitted for a leather jacket.

Like i said, im around the fort benning / columbus area and we are going to be driving home for xmas so we will be going through parts of south and north carolina, but Id prefer to find somewhere around here, even in Atlanta

Im looking for a race type shop...not a squid shop which is all they have here near Fort Benning.

thanks guys

Motions in Marietta on Cobb Parkway has a decent selection. I personally don't like the shop, but they have lots of gear. If you are headed home on 285, take the Cobb Parkway exit and go north for a couple of miles.

If you are coming down I-85 then you pass a few stores along the way.

First Two you'll come to is in Braselton off GA53. If you take a right off the exit(Assuming you are headed south) and go up about 1 mile you'll run into a Suzuki/Yamaha dealership. Probably not much of a selection but right off the interstate. Or if you take a left off the exit and go down about 5 miles (Don't mind the scarecrows) you'll see a Kawasaki place on your left on GA53. I haven't been in there but I heard they have a decent selection.

Now continuing down I-85 you'll come to GA20 which is where the Mall of Georgia is. This is about 10miles out of the way but it's a Cycle Gear and worth it. Dianese, Frank Thomas, Joe Rocket, Alpinestar, etc, is available in the store. But head south on GA20 until you get to GA316 (You'll pass a Polaris/Suzuki/Can-am dealership on your right but they have very little) and head west (You'll take a right). You'll go to Collins Hill road which will be the next redlight down and take a left. You'll see a Honda/Yamaha place off to your left before you get to the light. They have some Joe Rocket stuff but most Honda themed. If you want to give them a try they are the first left off of GA316. But go down a little bit more and you'll see a Walmart on your right. Turn into the Walmart shopping center and you'll see Cycle Gear in the little shopping center.

When done there hop back on GA316 and head west and you'll spit right back out on I-85.

Too bad you weren't coming down about 2 weeks ago. Atlanta Triumph Ducati closed down and had some sweet deals on some Dianese leathers. It was also surrounded by whore houses and strip clubs so your girlfriend and yourself could have had a great time in our Highway to Hell district.

That's about it when it comes to places not too far out of your way. And I'm not too sure about the southside.

Now if you find something you want at the Lawrenceville cycle gear but they don't have it. There are 2 more Cycle Gears not too far out of the way so you can check those out.

There is a Cycle Gear on Hwy 41 (Cobb Pkwy) just north of I-285 on the north end. Hwy 41 (Cobb Pkwy) is just west of I-75 where they cross the north end of I-285.
