hey akeem... leather gloves usually can buy in bike shops ar..? i need gloves!!! my handle ar.. if i ride more than 15mins and not letting my hand off the handle.. my tapak tangan will go red cause of the handle rubber.. haha.. expensive..?

for me, i prefer synthetic + cloth glove more because wearing leather glove especially during hot day will made my handpalm sweat. one more thing, i think leather glove is more suitable for easyrider or chopper rider aka uncle-style one.. hahaha

price i'm not very sure, mine is around rm50 with knuckle protector. this is my 3rd glove, previous two i sold it off because not very suitable with my taste (padding on the palm area too thick, uncomfortable + less grip on throttle). but the 1st time I wore glove, i felt a lil bit awkward lol

but u will have to take some time to get adjusted riding with glove..especially on brake pressure

this also leather what..


synthetic leather will feel hot la..but if genuine leather not hot..coz been wearing 1..


btw if have moneeh..better go for branded helmet..HJC,OGK,AFX,Nolan also produce good helmet....can get open face at RM500-700 that passed Snell and DOT..also have a good ventilation..no need to score for an arai or shoei
i'm wearing nolan for now..N43-air with dark visor..

yea, this one i agree. also you will felt different when gripping the throttle..



hahaha.. i mean those old-style black leather glove la, that one is racing type one

oh thanks for the info

the 1 i'm wearing cost Rm850..but i remember 4-7 months old 2nd hand cost RM600..
HJC is cheap..last time got some fellow selling to me at RM600..now i check the market around 650 for a good ventilated model..DOT approved..with internal dark sunglasses..

and i also have this 1 at home..Harley Davidson version..cost me around RM1700++

HJC is a value buy IMO..

I still got the helmet like a ghost rider's wearing old OGK 'aeroblade' helmet... hahahhahahaha

it was my old fullface helmet during my glory day riding a Gilera Runner scooter back in 2003

a fren of mine had an accident before, face down, and visor cracked and cut chin. 9 stitches and he smiles funny... get a real full face lah.

Zeus website, but doesn't seem to have 606 model...

webbikeworld has mixed but mostly positive review on an older 5 series modular helmet... I'd say this brand has made it global.
