Psychybikey Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Sorry, I'm sure this has been asked heaps of times.I've been ok so far with a pair of thin, waterproof mountaineering gloves under a pair of summer leather gloves with proper knuckle protection. The other week they let me down, it started raining ten miles from my destination and by the time I got there I could hardly feel my hands - unsafe as well as miserable.What does anybody suggest to keep my hands warm as well as protected if I come off? At a reasonable price - I know they won't be cheap but I don't really want to spend £100 or more.Thanks. Quote
fullscreenaging Posted January 26, 2016 Posted January 26, 2016 Look on www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk for winter gloves.You'll be able to see reviews from customers on there also. Quote
Psychybikey Posted January 26, 2016 Author Posted January 26, 2016 I'd really like some opinions from you guys too.... Quote
dave_d Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Heated grips... I am a bit of a newbie and a previous sceptic, but they are fantastic! Well under your £100 budget if you install yourself. I'm sure you can get lower current draw ones for 125's aswell. Quote
RantMachine Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I got a pair of Alpinestars WR-V goretex gloves last year, very happy with them - keep the rain out perfectly (as one would expect) and keep the cold out nicely too. No issues with freezing hands when riding over the past few weeks! £70 on Sportsbikeshop.com, well worth the money in my books. Quote
