Used to be George Whites, who went from a big bike and kit discount chain to a central site to tits-up and reborn as a cheap kit warehouse (on same site). Some of their buildings used by other dealers so if youre localish its still worth a trip.

J&S maybe too. Their websites were really poor last time I looked though.

Generally, I tend to but my kit from dealers with a decent selection. Depends what your looking for really. Although, I've bought stuff online from onyerbike, riders, etc. most seem to out clearance stuff on eBay though. I'm based in Nottingham so I usually go to CMC's in chesterfield or Pidcock's that have a decent section and its a ride out too.

Agree with ChrisA, most of my kit I buy after trying it on in dealers (plenty of sales on this time of year), and a lot of the stores sell their cheap stuff as eBay traders. Got a £300 Shoei in last years colours (and the colour scheme I actually liked) for £180 from ebay, but it was a bricks-and-mortar shop using ebay for web exposure.

For online then it's mainly -

http://www.mandp.co.uk/
http://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/
http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/motorcycle

J&S always were the bricks and mortar discount store of choice as they've got a few branches and always seemed to have decent offers on - http://www.jsaccessories.co.uk/

Depends what you are after

Most of stuff is from Hein Gericke, Infinity Motorcycles and J&S, but there are outlets relatively local to me

I bought my lids from lid specialists though as they were the cheapest
