I like the HD fingerless with palm padding. Good coverage for most of the areas that would get road rash if you wend down, but still able to handle coins and small things in your pockets without taking the gloves off.

Yep i would agree

Ibought thefingerless glove from HD with the gel pad for the palm.On a real hot dayI won't wear any gloves at all and I know it is not as safe as a glove with knuckle protectionbut I feel more connected with the bike.

like the gloves the CHP wear.. If they don't work out for the bike they'll
be great in the yard...good luck Steve

Mechanix gloves. They will last forever and you can get a pair for about $20.00. Pep-boys style..

Once yearly while at Wallyworld I buy a pair of Bell fingerless. Nice palm padding, breaths well, doesn't seem to sweat. Cheapos.

I've been using Icon Tarmacs for a while now. They are very comfortable even in our triple digit heat and have the armour over the knuckles and palms.
