Hi Pete,
usually I search "security" in my motorcycle clothing,  here in Italy in winter (but olso in spring/autumn) I usually use  Halvarssons Safety grip, until last year,  they are only gloves CE-approved in accordance with standard EN 13594. I don't know if now there are other gloves with this standard.

I use this gloves with grip heater and handguards.

...I also have a "more winter" gloves, bmw pro winter, but there are very similar to ski gloves, in my opinion they are less secure on scratches in case of fall... 


P.s. For your infomation, here a link about EN standards for motorcycle clothing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorcycle_personal_protective_equipment

Hi Pete,

I have all season gloves from Held.Goretex,windprotection and a famous feeling inside.
You have also a good feeling for the grips.But these are not hard winter gloves.
I guess < 6 degrees they are good.

Held warm n' dry  price about 124 Euro.

I've ridden today about 140miles (2 stops) in 4-5C with all weather sumer gloves and heated grips were brilliant. Apart from a runny nose :( it was nice and cosy. Winter gloves are too bulky for me and I feel like I don't have a enough control with them.

Thanks for the link. I have looked at a couple of different Held gloves, they look really good.

Regards
Pete

I take your point about feel of controls, I really don't want to compromise in that area
