New to the club

Post by mgrandio »

Hi all

I started with BMW motos a few years ago, i bought a R1150 rockster, now i already have a R1200GS, before these two i used to be japan horses rider...

I live in Mexico City and mostly use my bikes for riding on the weekend to places close to my city

I've had some problems with my bm's, the rockster needed a ABS pump change (thanks god it was warranty). the oil cap of both has been changed and some other minor problems...but they ride very well, like them very much for long trips.

In my country apparel and accesories are so much more expensive that in the U.S., but fortunately next week I am traveling because of work to Las Vegas, so If you could hem=lp me giving me information on stores near the strip would apreciate it

I want to buy a Jacket (maybe bmw), some gloves and a new helmet

Thanks

Manuel

You may already be in Vegas by now.
If you happen to check back here on the forum... this looks like a likely spot to start with.
The cabs are crazy in Vegas but readily available....hail and cab and go check these guys out.
Maybe they rent?
