title says most of it, looking for a reasonable pair around the £100 mark. what do most people use, any ideas?

i find these are very comfortable but they do chaff a little on the tank

ive got the XPD x5 boots which are very cumfy but not very waterproof,
the boots i would recomend are the sidi black rain, 100% waterproof very cumfy in summer and warm in winter, price is around £130 ish.
hope this helps.

only boots ur allowed to wear they sex

I too have a apair of Sidi's and they are worth their weight in gold

yeah the sidi boots look class or the alpinestars mine are cheap things from bridge has got no name on paid 70bills and they are a piece of alright kit

You want some of these:

sidi's seem to go for around the 100 quid mark as long as their not the 05 vertigo/corsa's, so i think i might go for a pair. I always thought they would be more expensive as they are often quoted as the best, going to be a happy christmas . Cheers

I've had my sidi's for 2 years, they are still ok apart from the right hand boot now has a hole where it's burnt from the exhaust, I usually keep a patch of duck tape on if it's raining

I have Sidi's stuck in the back of a cuboard somewhere - wear trainers 99% of the time though.

I just bought a pair of swift M2R Superbike Boots from this website. Absolutely brilliant, great customer service, phoned me up and everything to make sure they had arrived and the boots are pukka

You wear trainers and jeans on your K5?

yep and a very light jacket definately not meant for riding a bike in.

I stopped wearing full leathers a couple years back because I find it makes you more prone to riding to fast to much of the time. Bung on some normal none biking clothes and you feel more vulnerable which slows you down.

hows that for dumb logic.

oh and its a K6

Yeah I knew your new one was a K6, but I think I meant your old bike, but that was like a K2 or 3.

I kinda see your logic, but cant say I understand it!

But why dont you wear leathers and stop your throttle twisting more than a 1/4 turn ;)
