        Which make? The name isn't clear enough. How are they wearing? 2 years is a long time, but did you use them extensively?

          Motogear.

          Yes, I have used them whenever I went riding, be it commuting to office, or 500kms. away to some remote place in Himachal. I have used them in hot sultry conditions, severe rains, even snow! And these pair of gloves have performed brilliantly up until now!

I dont know how many scratches I would have had on my knees.... or if my knee cap would have displaced or something.
              Knee guards are a must !!

              See crash pics
              duh..
              how did get the scrathes on both the sides of the fairing ?

                Cost - Rs.2600/-

                I got it a couple of years back from KRP, New Delhi. I don't really know whether this particular company has got any websites or not, but you can find these (and many other brands) pair of gauntlets at KRP or perhaps even at DSG.

                I am not so sure about DSG, though.

                  • Hi Guys, I've finally got my Cramster Mesh jacket yesterday. It costed me about 4300/- with 200 discount as it was the last piece before they launch a new model which will be priced at 5200 upwards. Yet to try it out on a road trip-hope to do so this weekend!

                            No problems. Now, go, get yourself a pair of gauntlets. These are really helpful in not only saving your skin in case of a fall, but also looks uber-cool!

                            Not to mention, you'll feel good within, when another guy on a bike would be staring down at your lid, jacket, gauntlet and eventually the machine you are on and will ask you - "Sir ji, are you a racer?", while you nonchalantly reply - "No, I am a safe rider!"
