Lowers radiators by almost an inch. Helps keep the front end planted. Lowers center of gravity making your bike feel lighter and handle better.

Decreases Reliability
September 30, 2010
"The first tip-over I had with these on caused one of the radiators to crack and leak. I wouldn't recommend these unless you don't fall or you don't mind replacing radiators.
I didn't really notice a difference in handling with them on. But I'm not very fast so possibly if I was at a pro level I would."

Worth the money

"They are great-looking, and they fit well, although the strap is a little on the small size."
 
For over 40 years, Alpinestars has produced superior motocross footwear with a paramount commitment to protection, performance and style. The Tech 3 boot represents all of this commitment with an added level of accessibility unmatched by any boot. Ideal for beginners but more than suitable for experts, the Tech 3 offers maximum value and performance at this price point. With its contoured TPU shin plate, reinforced leather rear plate and extended inside and outside guards, the Tech 3 provides some of the best external protection of any boot on the market. The internal shock-absorbing padding protects ankles, while Action leather and front / rear accordion panels allow for a great fitting boot with a low break-in time. As with all of Alpinestars motocross boots, the Tech 3 is CE certified and features replaceable soles and buckles, to ensure maximum performance for many years. The Alpinestars Tech 3 Boots are what you can expect from Alpinestars, high performance and loaded with functional features. The best feature of the Alpinestars Tech 3 Boots is the entry level price. Protection on the Tech 3 Boots are what you can expect from a company like Alpinestars. They have installed contoured shin plate protectors which have been injection-molded with high-modulus polyurethane to provide substantial impact and abrasion resistance. Alpinestars developed a patented "ankle-brace" system for the Tech 3 Boots for great ankle support. This system on the Tech 3 also provides ankle padding to reduce shock. The sole of the Alpinestars Tech 3 Boots provides a rigid platform with the contoured, tempered steel shank that has been over-injected with a dual density rubber to provide tons of grip and give you sure footing. The Tech 3 Boots have extended inside and outside plate guards to provide protection on the side and toe-box areas. The Alpinestars Tech 3 Boots have an internal plastic reinforcement placed on the inside of the boot. This reinforcement provides rigidity to the boot for support. Thick stamped suede covers this up and provides contact grip and heat resistance. The calf plate also helps out with grip, support and side contact on the Tech 3 Boots. Alpinestars uses reinforced leather up the back of the Tech 3 Boots, and their action leather on the upper section for durability. The instep flex-zone has also been stitched for additional support and durability. The Tech 3 Boots will keep you strapped in with the four high impact resistant buckles that feature memory positioning and quick release buckles. Alpinestars uses Velcro brand hook-and-loop attached to the elastic stretch PVC gaiter to seal the top of the boot and prevent water entry. Alpinestars adds plenty of comfort features to the extensive list of protection features. The Tech 3 Boots use a poly-fabric lining in addition to a multi-density EVA foam keeping your feet cozy. If you require a special foot bed Alpinestars accommodates your needs with a removable anatomic foot bed.

No complaints

"It fit well, and it has a good style to it. No complaints."
 
Pro Taper grips are some of the most widely used grips in professional motocross because of the quality grips they offer. The Pro Taper Pillow Top grips are no exception. Pro Taper Pillow Top Grips are covered in small square cushions (pillows) which give the riders hands extra support and comfort. Made of a custom Kraton rubber compound which provides a super tacky feel and great glove traction. The thickness of the grips provides excellent vibration dampening which will aid in the resistance of arm pump and hand fatigue. Fit any standard or oversized handlebars for motorcycles and ATVs with a twist throttle application.

Not very durable

The Dunlop Geomax MX51 motorcycle tire is new for 2009 and is an improved version of the immensely popular D756. Dunlop MX51 motorcycle tires feature a new profile design with more tread volume in the shoulders for excellent cornering grip and more open center-tread for straight-line traction. The updated recessed biting edge built into the shoulder knobs of the Dunlop Geomax MX51 improve cornering traction and rut performance in a wider range of terrain conditions. The tie-bar design connects and reinforces the tread blocks of the Dunlop MX51 for greater tread stiffness resulting in improved intermediate-to-hard terrain performance. Note: the Dunlop Geomax MX51 tire is sold individually.
 

Do they work well for softer terrain (e.g sandy loam)?
