When we to Port Pirie yesterday by car we called into Boats and Bikes. Sort of a strange set up for me, Honda Marine, Suzuki and Yamaha dealer all in one as I usually see Honda Marine with Honda Bikes.....lol

Actually went there to see about oil and Heather ended up forking out $168 for new boots for me and we never looked at the oil. Have never seen the brand before and it was priced middle of the range for the ones that were on Special Sale price.
Boots are here http://www.axo.com/us/collection/street/footwear/q-gt-wp-boots (http://www.axo.com/us/collection/street/footwear/q-gt-wp-boots) and are supposed to be waterproof. Similar to Dri-Rider in that area I suppose.

Gott me a cheap pair that fit real well, and their waterproof and their warm and their real easy to get on and off. Their the cheap RJ's ones
-
Axo are a reasonably known brand, as I have seen them around and seen reviews. Being actually waterproof is another issue, but given the weather protection on an ST11 I don't think they will be too challenged. Keeping up some leather treatment on the boots will help.

I wasn't to fussed either way, my old ones after six years were no longer fit for the purpose and needed another pair for the border run.

Water resistant Alan.......not quite water proof!!...........but a nice looking boot nevertheless and at a good price "to boot"!! :thumbsup
A good spray with water repellant should help in the water proofing department. :)

Compared to my old worn out boots my new ones are waterproof in a way the old ones weren't.............lol

what is a good waterproof treatment

We get this from our local hardware store for about $20 a can. I use it on my jacket and it seems to work in light showers as I haven't been out in heavy downpours for quite awhile.
