[QUOTE="mcatrophy, post: 1445261, member: 3187"] i suppose mostly aesthetics, though they did occasionally get in the way, found my boots occasionally touching them when stopping. I never seem to suffer from cold feet (and I have been on the bike for several hours in sub-freezing weather). Maybe I have very good boots, maybe I am used to cold feet so I don't suffer. (Certainly not because I am hard.) Pictures below are of my (Gen 3) 2014, different from your Gen 2.
