Default Glove recommendations

I want to get a new pair of gloves for this season. I have a pair of the moto gp nitrous gloves and realy liked them. Looking for something comprable. Also want to spend under 100 bucks. I am curious about their sizing too since the moto gps seem to run small.

So any suggestions and a place to buy them from would be greatly appreciated.

Tom

I got a pair of black A* gp plus in large that I will sell you for $70 shipped if you can find out they fit you. Basically brand new. It's the last generation style. These are full gauntlets.

If those dont fit, check out the a* sp1 and sp2. I think theyre about 120 and 90 respectively.

Astars GP Plus. I have done a few track days and a lot of street riding and there's no signs of wear. Very solid glove!

If Tommy doesn't want them, can you have them to me by Friday?

Thats why I went with a 2xl the lrg would never fit me anyway. my motogp gloves are 2xl and fit great.

I know but thanks for the heads up.

I actually already have a pair of the GP Plus but they sat in an unventilated bin in an unventilated trailer.

Even if I could get them to move again, I'm not sure if my tetanus is up to date!
