Now that the day I can once again ride my FZ6 is near, I'd like to ask if anyone of you have any advice regarding ankle protective motorcycle boots. I broke my tibia on my FZ6 when i hit a muddy patch on a gravel road. Even though I was traveling at walking speed, the resulting fall torqued my left foot counterclockwise and broke my distal tibia in what's known as a pilon fracture. I'm not sure any type of footwear would have prevented the injury, but the whole event illustrates the need for as much foot protection as possible. What type of boots provide the best ankle protection, allow for reasonably comfortable walking, and, not to complicate matters, fit a wider than average foot?
