Can anyone remember the name of the company that did or does boots for bikers that give you a little extra height ? think it may have been daytona or something like it, reckon I need some after my exploits at the weekend.

Yes Daytona. I have the Daytona Ladystar GTX's and they add at least an inch and half to my height which is why I bought them.

For men I believe it is the Daytona Roadstar GTX

poor stew, the amount of times I've parked behind you this weekend and jumped off just as you finally got that stand up is untrue.

Your not that short, its your bike thats too tall....perhaps you could shrink it in the wash!
