	Well i decided that i would like a new pair of gloves this year that allows me to be more versatile. I'm not looking for the warmest, driest, or most comfortable gloves. A pair that are simply less bulky and have good grip. Basically what are the best racing gloves? I don't like the big ones that are harder to jump with because you can't get a finger or two on the brake or they slip. So far i am considering: FXR Racing Octane Castle Launch Glove Thanks for all of the opinions. 2003 Ski Doo MXZ 600 HO- Rumble Pack, Cobra Windshield, RSI Bar set-up 2002 indy 500 stock Rating: 0 Quick Edit Edit Topic

	Get mechanix gloves. Way cheaper than name brand. If you do hard riding they are great. Cold if you do trail but keep a pair of good warm gloves or mittens in your pack or somewhere when you need them. I can't justify spending $50+ on a pair of thing gloves when Mechanix are $20. I usually go through 2 pair a year riding, then after that they are getting tattered in a few spots but work for doing other things. Rating: 0 Quick Edit Full Edit

	^That's what I ride with, the Mechanix Fastfit gloves. Very comfortable and thin, yet offers a little protection. Rating: 0 Quick Edit Full Edit

	Try IronClad Tundra gloves. They keep your hands warm, dry, and comforable. They are not too thick but not too thin. Rating: 0 Quick Edit Full Edit

	I just use some insulated mechanics gloves I got at Mark's Work Warehouse for $30CAD. The work great for all my riding. Only time they are a bit cold is when running at high speeds with a string wind, and also without a windshield or handguards. I installed Powermadd handguards and now don't have a problem. 2002 Ski-Doo Renegade 700 -RSI Backcountry Bars & 7" Riser -Powermadd Throttle and Brake Extensions, and Handguards -ZBroz Remote Reservoir Non-Adjust Front Shocks with Triple Rate Springs/X Center and Monster Performance Rear -SlyDog Trail Skis with 6" Shaper Bars up front; 2" track out back -Boyesen Rage Cages For All Your Shock Needs: Monster Performance and Custom Rating: 0 Quick Edit Full Edit
