Default Gloves

I'm getting blisters on my hands. Since I'm a musician, guess I'll wear the gloves.


I know I'm a whimp!

I have a set of 1/2 gloves which I really like..they have the gel pads on the palm. the gel doesn't really help with palm fatigue but it does make for a super grip on the hand controls.

They're kevlar and very lightweight...you should look into something like that.I now feel naked riding without mine. I also have some full leather HD gloves but I couldn't imagine having to wear those damn things around town when the weather's nice...

Here's a pic of the gloves I use..as best I can tell from the logo they're CEBA brand? I got them at a local bigdog custom motorcycle dealership here.

I havealmost 5k on them and they're held up wellso far.
