How the hell do you break in motocros boots? I put mine on and sat on my ATV and I can't get the toe of my left foot under the shifter. These boots are too damn stiff.

Hey Bunghole

You just have to go out and ride a few times.  Miss a lot of shifts, lock up the brakes a lot.  Don't know of any short-cuts.

Most new boots break in pretty fast though.  Wear 'em around the house and do some squats to soften' em up.

Start a fashion trend by wearing them around town.

Take a rag soaked in mink oil and place it over the arch of the boot over night. It will loosen up the boot. Or you can fill it with hot water and let it set for a few hrs and the were them for the day. The mink oil trick works better though.
