Someone stole my gloves this weekend
I was out at a place called "New Hope" in PA - its a cool ride to get to it and a great biker hangout. While my baby was nicely parked, some dipshit stole my bike gloves out of my helmet. Needless to say I'm in the market for gloves - who likes which gloves the best? I have the 2000 green bike, black jacket and a grey arai helmet

BTW - my jacket is a vanson - so it has a yellow badge on the shoulder. Damnit - the gloves were black and had nice armour on the knuckes and fingers that was like yellow carbon fiber looking - matched the shoulder badge perfectly. That sucked.

If you can find them on closeout.... they run about $60 pair.
If not...you might be happy with this:

See, a simple harmless thread about gloves turns into a gay love fest. These waters are safe for no one. LOL
By the way Death, Steve and HDL stole them cause they wanted to jack off in them. They are weird like that.

Me too Steve, they are a very nice glove. Tons of protection and comfortable, an excellent choice.

My Violators are a bit too short in the fingers, but okay every where else.
I have a pair of N2 kangaroos that are awesome. Expensive but you can really feel the levers through the kangaroo better than the cow leather.

New Enough has the Violators on close-out for $35, that is a FUCKING STEAL!!! I don't even need a new pair but I am seriously thinking about ordering another pair. I have seen those gloves selling for over $130.
Yep Jon, DogFucker & Otis need to seek some professional help>

Shit, yeah that IS a steal. Fuck - I just might have to get another pair for that - long way from $130 for the N2's. But the N2's are really, really, nice.
Shit - $35? *thinking*

Dood that is super cheap!!! I have one riding season on my violators and they still look new. They are WELL worth $35 without a doubt. Anyone needing some gloves should consider checking them out.

Thieves suck!
The only reason you girls like the violator gloves so much is because the come with an XL vibrating butt plug!
And TurboBlewMe - I was milking bulls with your lips. I was having to hold your head on his root as your gag reflex was kicking in from deepthroating so many bulls!

Hey Jon - those N2's look AMAZING! I'm ordering a pair as we speak. The guys on the link you have above have great customer service too BTW. I had a question about Large vs. Extra large and the guy on the phone was lke "hey - just fax me an outline of your hand, and we'll make sure its sized right". Now THAT is cool customer service!!!

Yeah, Motoliberty is a store in Dallas - couple of the guys race in the same club as I and they are pretty cool guys. I won't say I 'race' with them as, uh, we're in TOTALLY different leagues.

I love my violators.
New Enough has GREEN violators for $29 right now. Look under closeouts- green things.

Well, all I know is that the last time I pavent surfed, everything that I was wearing that was NOT leather got tore up pretty good. The leathers were worn down pretty well, and torn in a few places, but not bad considering. After that experience, I hate to ride in anything less.
