    I never had the slightest problem with button flies. And one did not run the constant peril of vital equipemnt becoming jammed in the works. So to speak.

    I found the perfect match

    you know what you guys should wear with fingerless gloves?
    Open face helm, (or bandanna)
    vest,
    and of course
    ....
    Arseless Chaps!

    But what do you wear under the arseless chaps? :spudwhat:
    A skinless arse?
    Baboon butt?
    Pink frilly panties?
    ... and that's what I think.

    Or summat.


    Or maybe not...

    Verily, I saw a dude on a big Harley (and a learner's licence) wearing those things a few months back. At Waiuku.

    I could not figure out what he was wearing at first. Then I twigged. An urban legend come to life, in front of my eyes.

    Hmmm... unfortunate juxtaposition (that is, if you really meant "arseless chaps"), or was he wearing a skinless arse, baboon butt, and pink frilly panties?

    I was considering getting chaps so that I could wear a pair of jeans around town.. would be much better than leathers with knee pads and all the rest but decided to just HTFU and deal with it.

    I'm looking for a new pair of gloves though.. wouldn't mind some fingerless gloves so you can pull out a ciggie, buckle your helmet or go to the shops without having to pull off and on your gloves everytime.

    I wear a set of light duty carbon/kevlar gloves that do all this. I had issues with garage door opener stuck in zip pockets. Didn't want to go fingerless so this was the next best bet. Cost a whopping $60

    Fingerless gloves??............I've been thinking of getting a a pair ever since a Harley rider told me he does not have to take his gloves off to have a pee. Makes sense to me.

    Yes, I find taking my gloves off to be such a chore. Of course if I wasn't stopping so often to be admired and doing more actual riding it wouldn't be a problem.

    Fingerless gloves allows one to pick ones nose a lot easier.
