Default Good place to buy leathers?

I'm trying to find a good place to buy a black leatherjacket online? The only place to buy one here in town is cyclegear (all of theirs suck) and the Harley dealersbut I just can't spend $400 - $600 on a leather jacket. The cheapest jacket they had was $425![/align][/align]Any places online that you guys know of?[/align]

[/align][/align]I found a coat exactly like their first one at cyclegear but when I put my hands on my handlebars, the sleeves went half way up my forearm! I'm trying to find a jacket that's made for riding so when you have your hands on the bars the sleeves will be long enough.[/align]

Ebay, but be patient and careful. I just got a HD competition jacket for $335.00 with shipping. Great deal on a $470.00 jacket fromthe dealer.

Do a search on ebay for River Road. I just bought their cruising jacket from an ebay store for $140. Very impressed with the quality of the leather and workmanship.

[/align][/align]I like river road stuff, I have bags and boots from them. How was it when you were riding? Were the sleeves long enough? I'm only 6'1" withstandard bars and when i grab the bars the sleeves slide up at least 4 inches. I found one that was made for riding. When i grabbed the bars with it the sleeves never moved, but it was a crotch rocket jacket and not a cruiser jacket.[/align]
