Putting the Boot in

**duckman** · 15th July 2005, 15:45

As a sprot bike rider I have my boots on the outside of my pants .... However, almost every HD type rider I've noticed rides with their leathers pulled down over the top of their boots. (following me here so far?)

When it rains... surely you would get better weather protection by having your boots under your leather pants ... yes?

Do us sprot bike riders have something to learn from our cruiser rider brothers?

Your thoughts?

Yes. You do.

Where do you get these sprot bikes and is it compulsory to dress funny on them?

**Pwalo** · 15th July 2005, 15:50

It really wasn't any trouble. At all. Not even a bit.

I always have my pants on the inside, unless it's raining, then they go on the outside to stop rain draining in.

It's the times I've seen you with your underpants on the outside that are the problem.

Rossi follows the ways of the "Cruiser people". As he is god amongst most sports bike people it is your duty to follow him, as a sports bike rider!

That was my throught.

Personally though, My leathers doesn't strech that far... I think. Plus, no matter what Rossi does, I reckon it looks dorky! I'd rather show off my riding boots on the outside of my leathers. If it's pissing down hard enough, you'll get wet anyway and if it's not, it shouldn't bother ya.

You can normally find sprot bikes in gargres and yes you MUST dress like a tube of toothpaste to ride one properly.

Gaiters. I'm getting some gaiters. They'll solve some of the boot problems.
