Greetings folks,
I am after some new boots, because of injury problems(have to wear orthotics)my choices are limited.
SIDI seem to have room, has anyone got the SIDI ST's for use on the F4 750 or older 1,000's. I was concerned whether the bulky side protection parts get in the way with the foot shields?
Also are they regarding the sole of the boot any more difficult to break in as the older Vertigo model?
Do they offer the same amount of rider feel regarding foot peg feel and ease of gear change? I ask because the Surgeon who operated on my leg managed to damaged the nerve and partially paralyzing my foot, leaving it partially numb, and lacking full upward movement, meaning it took me bloody ages to break in the Vertigo's, and reguired a little modification of the left boot.
Until I broke the boot in I was guessing gear changes(and missing a few) also my foot kept falling of the peg.
I have not tried the Alpinestars SMX plus boots yet, although I am not holding my breath regarding fit. Are these a comfy easily flexible boot for changing gear etc?
Can anyone comment on if either of these boots are good for walking around in. For reference point my SIDI Vertigo boots are fine for me walking distances in them.
Thanks for any help regarding something I find very frustrating to deal with.
