Nice gloves. Just bought some icons. They were the only ones that fit.

Kind of deal you get on those?

$100 shipped. I could have gotten the full gauntlet for about the same but I hate all the trouble of putting them on and taking them off...

Here's a pair of XXLs that are at $102. I doubt they'll go over $110-120.

Nice. I paid about the same at the shop. I needed them ASAP. My fingers were sticking out of my old ones.

I agree on the gauntlets. I have an alpinestars dragster jacket. And its really wide at the wrist. So gauntlets just don't work for me.

I have a pair in yellow. They have small burnt places on them from trying to put out the motor fire when I blew a connecting rod. The next ones are coming from this place.

I used to wear gauntlets that had the studs in the palm all the time. Till I noticed I had scratched my tank in a few places with them. If I was at a light for a bit, I might casually put my hand on my tank. The studs in the palm can scratch up the tank quite easy. Just be carefull around the tank with them.
