Re: Wearing Gloves
I just went down 2 weeks ago with the meteor joe rocket gloves at about 70 and they shredded off me! So wear ALL leather gloves and make sure they are the guantlet style...not just wrist! My fingers still are all screwed up.

you better buy two pair, cause when you fall and they shred you will need the
2nd pair to cover up your hamburg hands. i only speak from experience.
i won't wear those style gloves anymore. check out www.rideicon.com

peace

Re: Wearing Gloves
joe rocket phoenix gloves with the carbon fiber knuckles are the best.. I've owned about 7 pairs already. They now have a new model which sucks. When the new one came out I went around to all the local shops and snatched 'em up before they got the new **** in

Re: Wearing Gloves
i agree with nags...the pheonix gloves are one of the best out there.
i'm on my 5th pair, can't seem to find a better glove for what we do
with these bikes.

Re: Wearing Gloves
the best thing is that I wear them out.. send 'em to JR and they send me a replacement. I've had about 7 pairs and only paid for 3

Re: Wearing Gloves
I have full leather and some dirtbike gloves, kinda switch off and on. Learned my lesson about not wearing em. Ran the bike through first, and when i jammed second gear, it jerked so hard that it ripped my left hand off. Not good around 90 miles an hour or so. Scared the **** out of me. Gloves all the time.
