redfjniner Posted November 13, 2015 Share Posted November 13, 2015 A friend of mine was using Alpine Stars, which I inheirted after he crashed and I picked them up off the ground after they had been cut off by the paramedics (dumn asses). I sewed them back together and started using them. They were slightly large, but still very nice. I lost them and found an equal by Alpine Star, almost exactly the same, but newer. I had such good success with them over three years that I had to have the same. My new ones are even better because the fit perfectly, better than any other Gortex glove I have had. The model is: [/url]Alpinestars Archer-X-Trafittm Gloves. They run a size small. I use these year round along with an inexpensive vented glove. I also use mits in the winter. Got them for the FZ-09 but use them on the FJR and FJ. Ken, Candy Ass L.D.R.

Premium Member wessie Posted November 13, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted November 13, 2015 The temperature has dropped to proper November ones after the unseasonably warm spell. The Tucano Muffs are on - the proper ADV ones, not the neoprene ones used last winter. You'll need to remove the OE handguards for these. I jave the the KTM ones.

Premium Member wessie Posted November 13, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted November 13, 2015 The fabric gloves mentioned above have been tested now and work well - French brand Ixon https://www.infinitymotorcycles.com/product/ixon-pro-tender-motorcycle-gloves/5009 Good summer rain glove or warm enough for autumn and spring rides when the sun isn't shining. CE knuckle protection. This signature is left blank as the poster writes enough pretentious bollocks as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member keithu Posted November 14, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted November 14, 2015 I'm wearing Held Satu gloves: I've only had these for about two months but they're comfortable, waterproof (so far), and less insulated which is good with the heated grips.

docsimple Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 super comfy, pretty good wp and room for an inner liner if they are not warm enough.
