Right now i have the Icon Hooligans, they have a lot of protection but i can barely feel the controls. They are bulky and i cant really move my fingers. I need some recomendations.

thanks

how long have you had them?

i have the timax, they were horrible until i put about 10 hours of riding on them, and rode them in the rain a couple times, now it's not bad at all.

yeah, once the padding took form to my hands, they became great. Just takes some time to wear in.

Those would shred and fall off in a high speed slide. get something with a leather palm and possibly studded.

I bought a pair of Dainese gloves for 40 dollars from Motorace.

actually when you go down if you have good gloves you can semi control witch way you slide by putting one hand down, kinda like a boat when you drag an ore.

I almost got those instead of the TiMax but I like the idea of Titanium protection in those gloves. Hey, thanks for meeting up with me the other day to try on your gloves. Hopefully I'll have mine this weekend :D

It was no problem. Glad i could help out. just remember they run a size smaller than other gloves. Large=medium.
