Hi all

Postby kwakadakka » Sat Feb 23, 2008 7:46 pm

Hi everyone,

Little bit about me, i currently ride a 2001 ZX6R and have a ZXR400 track bike. My partner also has a track bike - GSXR600 and for the road another GSXR600...
Very full garage, but we are thinking of selling the Gixxer (track bike) soon, so if anyone might be interested let me know!

I havent been riding long about 4 years. But iam wondering if anyone can help me out, i can find boots, leathers, helmets etc etc to fit me but dam it who makes gloves for girls that actually have knuckle protection instead for us girls who ride and race, instead of just some thin piece of thin leather?

Many people here from SA?

: )

Hey there and welcome.

A friend of mine picked these up from the US and you can order them online in Australia. They are the most comfortable gloves you will find. They will email you a sizing chart if you want to order.

http://www.hitairaustralia.com/gloves.htm

I recently got a pair of these which are also good, well armoured and padded. They are mens sizes so I needed XS. They don't have a gauntlet but fit fairly well under the cuffs on my Joe Rocket jacket.

My wife has a pair of Joe rocket gloves. Not only do they feature knuckle and fingee armour, but they come in a leopard skin print to boot!!! :lol: She lurves em and they have plenty of protection. Mind you they are not gauntlet, so MA might have something to say if you are racing the trackie. As TTC says though, Joe rocket make specific stuff for the gals! ;)

Hmmm - has Neka developed a new subtle approach? Be wary kwakadakka - the leopard does not change its spots!

Welcome to the crew. Joe Rocket gloves are right up there when it comes to ladies gear and we just happen to be a stockist so don't let that stop you...!
