Winter gloves

tommymac · 10-04-2010, 02:07 PM

been pondering getting a pair of cold weather gloves for times I dont hook up/use the gerbings and saw these on closeout at motorcycle superstore.

been looking around at some others as well but these seem like a decent price.

i have had tour master before, they sucked ass. First gear TPG stuff is good.

the key to winter gloves is to wear nitrile or other thin rubber gloves under them

These are awesome http://www.klimusa.com/product/Togwo...ove,172,98.htm but are not cheap.

1st glove my hands don't get cold in at snowmobile temps which is way colder than you would ever experience on the bike.

Removable liners so you pick the glove weight depending on the cold (I never seem to need the liners). Palms and fingers are just leather for great feel, no slipping on the levers/grips. I wear them deep mountain powder riding so you really need to be able to feel the bars/grips.

Wind break/insulation on the back of the hand where you need it most. Gortex for those rainy days......stay dry digging out of a trench in the snow.

When the weather starts to get chilly in michigan I tuck them in my trunk for the early day or evening riding to keep my hands warm. I hate to have cords attached to me and these work great! Have not tried the battery gloves to see if they are superior.

Got a guy on a cbr forum that loves his Alpinestar WR-2 goretex gloves. He was using the Drystars before these and said that the WR-2 were a lot better.

My hands just get cold no matter what I wear. I have poor circulation to my hands and feet. Feet to stay a lot warmer than my hands though. I'm wanting something to deflect the air more than cover my hands up. I like tight gloves. Not thick clumsy gloves.
