I was going to buy new boots. But I am fixing this for my wife. She wants a Triumph! Cuz mine is cool. She has never ridden before so I figured that I had this old crapy thing out there for her. Just needed cleaned up a bit. She will ride it for about 1 month and then go buy her a new TBA. I dont want to put alot of money into this bike cuz she will dump it many times before she gets it right. So I am just looking for a cheep fix
