Broken boot - Puma 1000 V1

Broken boot, originally uploaded by achung_123.

It has been a while since I update my Sport Classic blog. Not only I have been busy at work, I have been busy on the new Streetfighter S also - especially on choosing new parts and modifications. To make it worse, I can't ride in past 2 weeks - my beloved Puma 1000 V1 has failed! It broke apart a lot sooner than I expected (weekend usage for 9 months only), and I am waiting for replacement or refund from DNA (very slow process BTW). That's really too bad. But believe it or not, I have just ordered the Puma boot again (but newer and improved - Puma 1000 v3). I have to say Puma has probably the best riding boots out there - it fits me well, and there is no zipper, no pressure point, and it never gets hot inside. The broken backing piece is a common problem of the older design... hopeful the new one won't have the same problem.

Can't wait the new one arrive!
