Nah. It is a proper one that even says Yamaha on it. Apparantly is it approved by the FIM and has a label on it to say so.

Cool!! Man I love your current avatar.

Don’t laugh! You think I’m kidding? I’m not. That is my actual riding gear. I do have a proper mx jersey that I bought from Kmart though.

Yeah I am hearing you,read my product review on the Oneal M10’s.
I have one pair of riding pants that I got off ebay 2nd hand for $65 they are Fox 180’s (the entry level ones) and I have crashed a ton of times in them and they still don’t look like they are about to wear out soon.I have had them going on 2 years.
Yet my brothers fancy looking Oneal ones went the same way as my boots,no good my friend.

Throw my boots in the back of the shed when I get home, bang them together to shake the dry mud of just before the next ride. Last Fox boots have only just been replaced, I bought them in 1998. Think I may stick with this strict routine for my new Answers. It seems like a lot of work but the results speek for themselves.

That is exactly the technique I used on the kids boots and they are still good,the boots I washed and babied fell to bits in no time.

I use a similar shake the mud off system on my chain before I lube it.:blush:

yeah well, the kids dirty boots usually just get thrown on the shed floor for me to pick up and put on the boot shelf.That is how they are stored,dirty and they are holding up well and my boots I babied are falling apart.
So I dunno.

The reason I asked in the first place is,the method I described above is what I did with the Oneal M10’s my wife got me for Xmas last year.
As they were my first pair of brand new boots I treated them well, I thought as I wanted them to last,only to see them fly apart like a chinese motorbike in less than 6 months.
I was just looking for some feed back from other riders on how they “service” their boots.

I use the red EBC pads and have been very happy with pad life and stopping power.Pretty well all our bikes are running them now.

Great ride reports and pics boys,almost made me think about leaving Wauchope for a ride.I would mind getting down there one time and having a look at the Lost City.
TB’s report would have made for better reading if he had actually come off.I spose you can’t help bad luck..LOL

[Mick DMember]
