Mini Me

We did this on my local riders board. Thought it was a great idea and thought Id bring it over here.

Nice. And I love what you did to the dining room. You should send this picture to dave for the commercial.

 

[Thaloc]

wow no one else has got a mini me. Sad Panda.

I'll take one too! I just have to get my bike up the stairs

you have clearance, ride it!

 

[Midnight82]

I'd take one, but I don't have cool riding boots.

Putting my helmet on a pair of Chuck Taylor's just wouldn't be as cool

 

[dave_xb12r]

You're hittin' it hard in chucks? Tisk tisk! You need to set bike mods aside and get yourself some good boots. Bad Ninja! Bad!

 

[Midnight82]

True Ninjas can jump kick anything barefooted and still be awesome.


What's a good boot recommendation?

 

[dave_xb12r]

I would say look at Alpinestar's track boots. I have the SMX plus, which is around $350, but you can get other tall A* boots for as low as $200. It may seem like a lot, but if you were to go down without them, you would be wishing you had bought them.

 

[Midnight82]

They're comfortable and not too hot?

 

[dave_xb12r]

Yes they are comfortable and they breathe well. I wear mine every time I ride

wow, and i thought i was the only one lol.
i want some of the shorty alpinestar white boots. not sure what they are called, but as of now, im rockn my everyday hightop black verses flipped down into low tops haha. works for me, but sometimes i shift into nuetral instead of 2nd, in that little range where the N light isnt on but your not in gear lol.

 

[PorcelainRabbit]

oh and btw, that mini me is awesome man, and i love your bike.

 

[Thaloc]

I hate my A* boots. I never wear them anymore. I just wear steel toed leather Timberland work boots. Iv been thinkin about picking up a pair of Sidi's or Puma riding boots. (I love Puma)

 

[dave_xb12r]

You hate them? why? I love mine. Sidi's are great. Watch CL, I see them on there all the time

 

[Thaloc]

Hate is a strong word I guess. The velcro on both of them isn't sticking so well. Toe slider on the right one isn't holding well anymore, but the brackets on it look fine so im forced to believe it must be a prob with the boot itself. I dunno, I just expected more out of a A* boot.

I'm pretty sure they have a lifetime warranty. Send them back and they'll send you new ones. Velcro? The only velcro that I have on mine is for the pull string. I have a zipper and a ski boot type latch

 

[Thaloc]

mine zip halfway and the velcro the rest of the way.
