Do these “super” boots have high heels then?

Perhaps a Cuban heel?

4.10 x 19 front and 4.25/85 x 18 rear TT100's were what Dunlop recommended for both 500 and 750 and the Girling shocks were the same for both so at least one of them was an incorrect length

My problems probably weren't helped by being too tight / stupid to replace the TT100 as the profile went off, because there was still plenty of tread left.
