I was looing at the Sidi Fusion, but it doesnt have enough armor to be a trackday boot. fine for street riding though.

I would go with the S-MX5. But i found the AXO Lancers on motorcyclecloseout to be one hell of a deal.

The Fusion look like the Vertigos (which I own and like) minus a couple of pieces and for $100 less.  +1 on should be a good street boot.  I don't have any experience with A* boots.

+1 on the Sidi looking for a less racy version of the Vertigos or Corsas, but more racy than the B2. Can't go wrong with Sidi IMO and for $200...

The B2 is more racey than the fusions are. It's got more protection and ankle support than the fusion model does

A* have smaller openings at the top, so if you have larger calfs, it is something to think about.
