Boxerbar, it's a kind of very little space and everything works by mailing list, anyway, if you can understand italian, the italian corrispective for ukgser is
www.quellidellelica.it (those of the propeller).
What about Touratech, this is the Italian site
www.touratech.it
Last week I ordered some things for my new GS and I got it in LESS THAN 1 WEEK. It appares to be a kind of usual time but there are longer deliveries too.
The shop is in Trento but they said to me that it is not properly an open to pubblic shop. Anyway if you needed someting and you phone them to set a meeting it is probable that they will allow you in.
About routes. I'm a member of internetriders.org (
www.internetriders.org) and we organise a lot off things alla round Italy. I'll give you a notice next time se go somewhere. (last week end of July we go down to Umbria)
Next week I have to go to Trento to take my new GS, would you like to meet there and try to go to the Touratech?
Keep in touch,
Alessandro
