vozizm i would recommend the sidi vertebra race boot. it is $350 but well worth it. i had a wreck and my boots held up well as a matter of fact i still were them <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"> .

I just got my Sidi race boots and they are great - totally comfortable for long periods of time - and light...never know you have them on.

I did the same thing to my ankle two years ago (minus the slice that opened him up) makes me cringe seeing it allover again.

Although I always wear a very good helmet, jacket, gloves, jeans or some other good M/C pants, I have been riding with tennis shoes at times or half boots. I just ordered Alpinestars GPS boots. Thanks for the wake-up call.

My Sidi vertabra boots are a month old now and I absolutely love them. I went with the Tepor lining too so they are 100% water proof. Doubt I will ever get a different brand after having the Sidi.

Tryed both Alpinstar & Sidi on,went with the Sidi vertibre,they were more comfortable on my feet & really diden`t even need to be broken in.Dont know how they are but the Teknic boots look like a good value for the money.

That's the ugly truth, skin just doesn't hold up to pavement.

I see it everyday, 50% or more riders not wearing full coverage.

Too hot to wear gear.....then leave the bike at home!


Remember without the kickstand, the natural lying position of a motorcycle.......is ON ITS SIDE.


I testiment to why I always wear the gear.

I see it alot also, riders wearing wife beaters and shorts riding sport bikes. It's not pretty when they crash. I've been wearing a set of of combat boots when I ride, intermixed with sneakers <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/eyes.gif ALT=":rolleyes"> . Guess I need to buy a set of real riding boots as well.

I have news for you -- that was way over 50-60 mph. I highsided at over 120 in cargo pants and a t-shirt with tennis sneakers and didn't look anywhere near that bad (I slid 400 ft) I'll post pics for you if you're interested.

makes my skin crawl
