Where to buy helmet, jacket and gloves near Oxford, Watford, Birmingham

As per title really...

I am looking to buy a motorbike helmet, jacket and gloves.

Want to try on first, so looking somewhere (not too expensive) near Oxford, Birmingham or Watford, which are my regular places of travel at the moment.

Any recommendations?

Lars

Hen Gericke aren't bad Link.

They have a branch in Birmingham and also Kenton, which isn't too far from Watford.

MPS in Wallingford are friendly and have a decent range.
