So i bought a pair of these O'Niel Element boots
they cost me £75, they look good and fit great but one question.
They are like moon boots, very stiff, not like track boots, i havent tried them on the bike yet as its thrown a radiator, anyway how the hell am i supposed to change gear !!

You change gear in the normal way.
They're bulky and stiff but you'll get used to them after riding in them for a bit. |

I got some O'Neal boots off ebay for £40. And they are old Skool leather ones with steel toe guards!
They are a bit muddy now though... ____________________ British beauty: Triumph Street Triple R; Loony stroker: KR1S; Track fun: GSXR750 L1; Commuter Missile: GSX-S1000F

I rode with my motox boots for the first time last week.
Got used to them by mid-day.
You dont change gear with a simple flick of your foot/toes ..... you have to physically lift your foot to notch in a gear.
Well! you do on my old bike anyway
