Try riding in the rain and then stopping, if you're gloves are on the outside, the water runs right into them!

I spend more time moving than stuck in traffic, inside is just fecking freezing from the wind, you are all barmy.

Also im on a naked, my arms are about level anyway i think, im tempted to got sit on it in garage and check :smt040!

Wifey and I have just had a mini domestic about this. She's claiming everyone on the ducatisti site wears gloves on the outside, which they don't, but I think I might have spotted a pattern. Apart from the obvious - gloves on the outside is wrong - I reckon the majority of people who believe that water and wind can go uphill are on nakeds and sensible people who know water flows downhill have fairings. Am I right?

Outside, always have and always will. My hands, wrists or arms have never got wet. My gloves have always been gortex and they have an inner sleeve which butts up against the inner sleeve from the jacket. The wrist cuff of the glove goes over the sleeve, preventing water and wind going up the sleeve.

You must have flappy sleeves! ;) There's no wind gets up my zipped and velcro'd sleeves when the gloves are on the inside, fairing or not.

I wear ladies knickers at the weekend. I tuck my string vest inside the waistband.

Most of the time its my leather so yes:smt040 but my waterproof loosens around the cuffs after a while.

Plus its just easier outside, not had any problems yet.
