I bought the Alpinestars S-MX Plus boots for PRS but sold them afterwards and bought these:
TCX X-Square Boots from SportbikeTrackGear.com

The A* just felt too bulky and uncomfortable for me; they also squeaked like hell just walking around, so annoying...I wanted boots that were comfortable, had a lot of feel, not restrictive, and could be worn off the bike as well. The TCX boots fit the bill; I'll sacrifice some protection for more feel and comfort.

Its so fking high and I'm short so it doesnt help that its a heavy bike... and I almost dropped it a few times =P
I went from PRS to a CBR F4i and I did drop it...twice, on the way home after buying the bike

Us short guys have to carefully consider the bike we're buying....my inseam is 30" and the seat height on modern sportbikes are at least 32" or 33". I had the seat shaved recently, and it has helped a bit but I still can't flat-foot it.
