Giving these a try this Summer
Furygan TD04R Summer Gloves
I really miss the Frank Thomas Urban Warrior mesh gloves that WD recommended but have not found any that meet the grade in the last 5 years or so.....
The Frank Thomas ones allowed the air to flow freely and were really effective in preventing hot sweaty hands..... trouble is they fell apart after a few weeks touring
Spotted these Furygan ones today at Helmet City.
Price £59.00
On the downside, I don't think the air will flow as freely as the Frank Thomas Urban Warrior ones but on the upside, they are a lot tougher and feel pure quality in comparrison _________________ Boxhill Chippendales

Shout when it arrives.
I have a pair of Alpine Stars Triumph branded gloves that although a bit "power ranger" would have been £150, but I paid £60 for them in a sale. Seem to have a good level of protection, I wore them in Spain & they were fine, cure for sweaty hands - ride faster (although I expect on board the Führer's GS with hand guards this is more of a problem?) _________________

Yup.... Very perspective of you and you're absolutely right of course ..... I have found that adjusting my grip an occasionaly and lifting up my knuckles and fingers occasionally by about 20mm, allows the air to flow freely at 30mph upwards. _________________ Boxhill Chippendales
