Gloves...

[X21ekx]

I'm looking for some new winter/waterproof gloves I don't like the full length ones I'm more of a cuff length kinda guy I know there's loads out there but who's a all year rider? That has tried and tested them and they just work! I've bought good ones cheap ones expensive ones and none of them have ever worked i.e. leaked
So! Does anyone out there have anything that they can recommend and hand on heart say they work!
Chers in advance

Just got some Klim Powerxross goretex gloves for £75, will let you know in a few weeks but they were highly recommended.

I have some top spec Hein Gericke waterproof gloves. Water fest in when they are put over the coat cuffs. Draughty get in when pug under the coat cuff. I suspect the glove cuff is a bit bulky and gets bunched up.
Aldi ski gloves are toasty warm but not protective.

I tried on a pair of the BMW Pro winter gloves today at the dealers. The cuffs are not that bulky so would fit under a jacket sleeve quite easily. They had knuckle protection and are gortex and were £115

I know that they are not to be recommended, but I like the fingerless ones. Down here it doesn't get that cold, and I like to feel the levers. I currently wear power lifter's cloves, and no it's not to help me pick the bike up when I drop it. they are padded on the palms, but none on the back. I would like some fingerless ones made for bikers.

I have some top of the range BMW winter gloves, maybe about 6 years old now, OK but not that impressed when compared to what seem to be much less bulky Klim offroad gortex gloves.

I have some old HG neoprene two finger over gloves - when it's really cold these over the klim are my favourite option.

I've not bothered with Muffs this year as the Klim + HG when required does the job

Muffs and then wear whatever gives you like

Barkbuster blizzard's. not as effective as a full muff, but keep most of the rain off and allow you to wear a lighter glove in the winter. Cheaper than a good pair of gloves.

And a good pair of gloves the Klim element or the new version are very good

Big plus one for these too. Had Tucano Urbano muffs peRmanently on the GS but for a continental trip last year on the Guzzi I bought some Blizzards . Expensive but well worth it for their effectiveness and ability to fit onto such a variety of bikes. Just minutes to fit too so easy to take on and off when you don't need them.

BMW Winter Pro. May not fit your spec exactly but best gloves I've ever used.

+1, works for me also.

Haven't tried the Klims yet but they are designed to go under the sleeve which should work well on the GS. With the handguards and heated grips I have managed fine so far with my ventilated summer leather gloves, only really bought the Klims because I don't like wet hands.

Whatever you get, make sure they have armour. I was knocked off a Honda 90 thirty years ago and had heavy leather gloves on, but no armour. Didn't really see it much then.
Had to get a skin graft on a finger on my left hand.
Most effective thing at this time of the year is the Tucano Urbano's
