I recently bought a BMW 2006 F650GS Dakar which included an OEM BMW tank bag - the type that has a zip on the seat side. I assumed the elasticized front straps hooked over the 'fake' tank until I saw the photo attached. There appears to be a special little bracket to protect the plastic from...

Can someone please help? There is not much of a selection of boots in Knysna (about 5 pairs) and it is risky buying online in terms of comfort, size, etc, but I happened to find a pair of Forma Nero Touring Boots in my size. I do a lot of dirt road riding (Prince Alfred's Pass, Swartberg Pass...
