    Some CRC or oil should fix the squeek

    Actually now that you mention it, I am wearing them at the moment (just got back from a ride) and they do squeak a tiny bit. Nothing noticable though. I heard that the Sidi's are really bad for it though.

    Cheers stevo, kickaha must have been talking about someone else, I'm just the mobile chicane

    What sorta wanker quotes his own posts?

    I've just got back from there, they've also got the alpinestars sm-x boots for $399.

    I had a look at them and the A* boots look more pretty and stuff, but I'd rather fall off in the sidis.

    If you want a real riding boot, rather than just the flash and dash in hot colours with bunnions for track days and posing, you can't go past the Daytona GoreTex. Nice and comfy, easy to get off and on, pretty darned close to being waterproof and easy to wear UNDER your trousers. They stay together pretty well too when you and your ride go sliding off down the road together...

    I've got some forma revenge boots, lots of padding in the right spots as well as toe scrappers etc. Also very comfortable as well, hopefully should keep my ankles intact if I come off again

    boots seem to vary from 199 to 799 and other than toe scrapers i can't see a lot of difference .
    any feedback about brand /type apreciated
    Got some for $400 and they are the best yet. Check em out put em on and you'll see what I'm yakkin about.
