I brought some Wulf Motocross boots and I can't reach the gear shifter because it's too near the foot peg and the boots have a high toe cap profile. I tried rotating the shifter up but the engine casing is in the way so I can't shift up a gear.

 

Anyone else countered a problem like this?

Yep, I put on a lever from my XT600, much longer, by about 1 1/2".

may aswell ride naked if ur not gonna wear proper gear lol

rant over ha

 Personally i wear hiking trainers for the ankle support. I've never liked the idea of spending omre than £30 on a pair of shoes lol. Also where the **** do you get decent cheap size 13 riding boots from?

 so how much are your feet worth??? u only ever get one set !

1 crash and your life can change for ever, skin and bone  covered in soft material dont last long on tarmak
