Going to Ottawa, any store recommendations for helmet/protection?

[lmn]

I´ll be arriving tomorrow (sept/22) and leaving on saturday (sept/25), and
since here in Brazil, prices are twice as much, I´ll be shopping for Shoei and back protector. Any store recommendations? they should have in stock due to the short stay?

Thanks, Laercio

Sorry no one has answered you on this.

I Googled "motorcycle gear, ottawa,cananda" and a lot of spots popped up so you might try that. Good luck on your trip and finding a helmet.

Are you going to be anywhere in the USA?

VegasRider,
Unfortunately no, the closer I´m right now at Toronto Airport. By the way I lived nearby for 4 years in Buffalo area, it´s 1:30 hs ride...

Maverick, thanks, I´m considering renting a car at the airport.

Maverick,
Thank you very much.
Been back in Brazil since sunday, but now I got to take pictures of the helmet. It´s the Arai Quantum 2, found in size S at the Good Time Centre. Very nice store. I also got a Back protector (Joe Rocket) and a Icon tank bag.
