motorhuckle boots

[Herb Stahlke]

Stephen King uses the term "motorhuckle boots" in his novels _It_ and
_Christine_.  Google returns 438 raw hits including one with a picture
of the boots.  But I haven't been able to find anything about the
origin of the term.  OED doesn't include it, and I don't have access
to DARE.
