I've got a pair of ex-Army black 7 hole boots I used for a while last year when I got the Enfield's then Bonnie, but I dont and never have like laces on bike boots, I found a bargain pair of brand new 'rigger' style boots off Bathgate market late last year, a bit like rigger's but with zip and velcro fastening, seen them for upto £100+ so £10 was a bargain too. Same cleated sole as the army boots, really well made in Italy I think, and comfy too, but will stand up and stay on if needed in the dreaded 'event'. Marketed as cruiser boots.
For short trips I use my trusted doc marten boots 8 hole so gives ankle protection, comfortable, triumph boots are still available similar style to the DMs, long rides Sidi black rains
i used to have a pair of sidi sports boots great on the bike, but it was a bit like walking with ski boots i always tie a double knot when i lace my boots up it stops any mishaps
My Sidi's are great on the bike but squeak when you walk and are dreadful for walking around in and being race boots look a bit odd with jeans
Daytona Spirit XCR for me. Leather pants fit inside them or can be adjusted tight to the calf to fit under jeans. Absolutely the best footwear ever!!!!!! Totally waterproof.
I was thinking of getting a pair of these boots, does anyone use them: http://www.worldoftriumph.com/cloth...d-boots/triumph-mens-classic-boots-black.html Or would you advise anything similar? I've got a pair of red n white Sidi's that I used for the Ducati but not using them with the Bonnie as don't look right!
don't know if I could do with the faffing with laces. take a trip to motolegends or J&S accessories. I wear a pair of altberg that I picked up off ebay
Oh Yessssssssssssssssss. I'm just glad it was one of that stood up and admitted to it. Maybe you could set up BMWTA meetings to help support the sad wretches and be able to recover and maybe buy bikes that look nice amd don't go rusty ??? (BMW Twats Anonimous) 
You will be a long time, save time, go look at another brand that ain't built in Germany !!!! Plus doing a TALL order, that will take YOU a long long time (I love you really, just can't resist to take the piss out of a man on a Triumph forum, who never owned a triumph and who owns a B*W )
Only got one set of ankles and if you ask any surgeon he will tell you there are some really delicate bones in your feet sensible choice my friend and I will be doing the same ride safe
