Usually I can find some type of boost shoe. Ultraboost, pure boost, DNA, etc. I am finding NOTHING.

Is Adidas getting rid of the boost line? Should I scramble to find as many ultraboost 1.0s? Are they going to be restocking?

I wear a size 10, and my favorite colorway is the black upper with white lower 1.0s / DNAs. Kind of insane seeing there is literally nothing on Adidas website in stock and they only have 2 or 3 colorways I can find. Usually I can find some crappy colorways but there is nothing.

Are they just impacted by supply shortages to make the boost material? Is it time to just start finding a replacement? UB's are the absolute best shoe for me. Tried Hokkas and others but nothing compares in terms of comfort.

So, I'm planning on selling my Grom and picking up an EMoto. I'm at a loss though.

Im 5'9 260 lbs. I really would like to avoid spending 5k. It needs to be a bike that can be registered off road. I'm in Utah so either Vin or a certificate of origin.

I'm not new to two wheels, had a crf 110, Grom, FZ6R, etc. I've ridden a few mx4 Talarias and loved them, but they would be hard to get registered here due to no Vin. And Utah has now thrown the book on EMotos so the street non registered glory days are long gone. The government wants their fair share.

99% of riding would be light / moderate single track trails, camp cruising / bathroom runs on dirt, maybe would like to goof off in small sand dunes when I'm camping and not wanting to drive the RZR, and also cruising around by my house / learning wheelies. I'm not going to hit doubles, might do some drops or dinky jumps. I'm not a moto rider so I am not going to slam tracks. I also have great throttle control, and can handle high power bikes just fine. I also feel like the bike needs to be quicker than my Grom and I am dead even racing a MX4 Talaria. It would be nice to be at least a little surprised with the power.

So far, best options seem like a 25+ Ultra bee or Eride pro SS 3.0. EDIT: Or, an Arctic Leopard XE Pro S?

Thing is, I would like to avoid spending that much. UB's are around 5k new from local sellers, I can find some Eride Pro 3.0s for 4,500 used with 400ish miles. They seem like good bikes but really for how I am going to use it might be overkill? Also, size considering I have never seen an ultra bee in person, and I would want something easy to store / not a cop magnet / easy to transport in my trailer with the rzr.

If I wanted to spend max 3500, would I end up regretting the Eride pro SS 2.0? Would a 2025 Light Bee X feel underwhelming? I don't want to buy something that feels weak or has bad suspension at my weight from the get go. I also don't want to buy something then blow another $2k into modifying it to be faster.

The MX4 Talaria I was sold on for years now but with how many options there are it seems like there are better things for the same price and can easily be registered.

I know this is a Surron group, but I've been researching and seen similar questions.

Edit: I also found a great deal on an Arctic Leopard XE Pro S, which seems like a strong contender and cheaper than the 3.0's I've seen used.
