Every pair of gloves I buy from the MOCO (H-D), I end up having problems with them. Bought a pair of Flag fingerless gloves and had to re-stitch them. A pair of perferated fingerless gloves, the leather separated from the seams. A pair of #1 full finger gloves, the #1 is tearing away from the glove. My most recent purchase of fingerless mesh gloves, the strene line is coming out of the welt. The blue mono-filament sticks out the finger and if I would rub my eye, I would get poked by the plastic line. You go back to the dealer and complain, they say you walked out the door, no guarantee. I have fewer problems with gloves I buy from vendors at rallies. The price is less also.
This influenced my purcahse last winter of heated gloves. Gerbings makes the HD heated glove. Gerbings offers a lifetime warranty on the heating element, HD warrnties for 1 year. Don't figure! From my product review you know I bought Warm Gear from Cozy Winters. Same warranty as Gerbings but less expense.
Maybe I should buy Wells LaMont and cut the fingers off. It's hell to be stylin and keeping up with Mike!

Are you serious?! You've just joined and in your first post you go back to a thread that is 2 years old and start calling out people. Now in that time frame I would think that Mike or Eagle would have responded to Rahlow if they had taken offense or could it be that they know him well enough to realize that he was JOKING! My suggestion to you is to take a step back, post a proper introduction, and get to know the members here before you try to start stirring the pot. But that is just my opinion, do what you want, just remember that respect given is respect earned.

Hey Mike, no worries my friend. You may not hear from me very often, but I'm still here checking stuff out. Kinda like a sniper in the shadows keeping his comrades from having to constantly look over their shoulders.
Seems like he didn't want to play though.

I never had any heated gloves, I don't like the idea of being wired to the bike.
Also have given up on gloves in the winter, they just don't keep my hands warm.
Finally got a pair of severe weather artic mittens and they are the best, there's
enough room to put a small heat pack on the below zero days and they keep my fingers nice and toasty.
My suggestion: Try mittens sometime.
Who else? Ricky-D of course

If that's the same Rahlow I know from South Carolina, he is just busting your balls, wears them welding gloves because they don't leak, riding bikes while we were pooping diapers, plum wore out a red white and blue Sporty, and upgraded to a crossbones or whatever them pu-say pirate things are called. Rahlow is a friend to all and never met a stranger. See you in Pigeon Forge June 2010 Rahlow...
