Of course, that's why I wear fingerless gloves, I got tired of my finger gettin' stuck in my nose with the full gloves. LOL

When its cold (yes) warm (no). [sm=happybounce.gif] The fingerless gloves make it easier to pick your nose.

I have the Harley Air-Flow gloves for warm days... most comfortable light weight gloves I've ever worn. (even on hot August days here in the desert of SLC).
Here's the link http://www.harley-davidson.com/mcm/m...bmLocale=en_US
During the winter I wear medium weight gauntlet gloves that I got at a sport bike shop and then wear glove liners from REI inside of them.

Only when it is cold out. I have a pair of perforated full finger leather gloves that I wish I had on when I went down a couple years ago. Of course it was about 95 degrees out so even perf gloves would have been hot. Course I probably wouldn't have road rash scars on my knuckles and wrist

Natural instinct when falling is to throw palms first foreward. I know, I twisted frames on everything from ten speed bikes Slamming guardrailsin the 70s to dirt bikes in the late 70s and early 80s I do own fingerless gloves but dont wear them. But I feel to those who say fingerless gloves are useless have never been flung mid air foreward. Each and every time i have. I found natural instinct was to hit Palms first. I have done it enough times to know the Sting.Had a Motorcycle wreck in 78 and back then gloves for riding were unheard of. But any wreck I had on two wheels natural instinct was to throw the Palms out to break the fall. Cant believe that fingerless gloves are useless especially in the warmer Southern States. I read alot of posts about heated gloves. So what i am hearing is its ok if your little fingers get cold fromriding, I have felt temps 40- 70 below ZeroBut if i wear fingerless glovesnow that I finally live in aSouthern Stateim weak in some way.If you do happen to see me wearing them. Approach me and tell me I am weak for wearing them. Bet Ill chang your attitude Fast.

Getting to wear leather pants with no butt and gloves with no fingers is the only reason I bought a Harley.
