So Cal Suspension Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 I ran the shifter one tooth higher. It made it easier to get my toe under the shifter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wacko2000 Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 If your talking about when your launching or drag racing, your foot shouldn't be coming out from under than shifter till you bang through all the gears! Raise the shifter or get rid of the big ass boots!! Almost certain I read that you had the fastest bike in your area, dudes around you must really suck if your missing gears and still winning!!

sheerider11 Posted May 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 do you miss shift because you dont fully lift the shifter up or because you dont fully let the shifter down? I think it might be I don't fully let it back down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lmao --- I am here: http://tapatalk.com/map.php?w2hsrz Damn I don't know where you heard that haha. But I don't like riding with out the boots. Maybe once I get it tuned it'll be a runner, but for a guess and check tune it holds up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infamous039 Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 I have never owned MX boots but tried some on in the store and was like hell no this damn things were like armored legs, I couldn't even walk in them. I just use some Timberland Mountain boots that cover my ankle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BelleauCarl Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Shifter up one tooth and i leave the upper strap of the boots loose its help a lot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jereme6655 Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 Anyone ever try the half height atv boots??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider11 Posted May 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Soak them in hot water, or bring them to a hockey shop and have them steam loosened. It's breaks them in A LOT. Only way to get them comfortable and easy to shift is to break them in. Never heard of that. I'll have to look into that. And as far as the half boot I've only seen them for moto gp guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
