Need the best winter gloves for my budget.

Was looking at the rukka lobster. Anyone got opinions on them?

Any suggestions welcome. Need them warm and waterproof for 2 hour rides.

Muffs.

If you're really determined to suffer for your art, then Richa Cold Protect GTX or Held Freezer, I suppose.

For 2 hours though? Muffs. Just do it.

sorry for hijacking! I've bought a pair of thermal inner gloves (not cheap either!) how will they stack up with just a regular pair of all season gloves compared to a thick winter pair? I haven't had a chance to try for myself as I'm currently abroad Thumbs Up

Tucano urbano muffs work fine on a GSXR.
£50-60 muffs and £10 gloves will work massively better than £100 gloves at keeping your hands warm in my experience.

Muffs work best.

Otherwise lobster type gloves seems to be the warmest. Only heated type can beat them.

Rukka does Gore-Tex lobster gloves for around 100 quid.

+1 for the muffs, the R361 should cost you more than forty quid and you can continue to use your summer gloves

Spend a spot more and get some Gerbings Heated Gloves. Plenty protection, lovely and warm, yet still not so overly padded they hinder controls. You'll never worry about cold fingers ever again.

(well until they develop a fault and you have to wait a couple of days for Gerbings to mail out some replacements...)
