Got my Cortech Adrenaline gloves on tuesday. SO NICE!
![]() Well, I had a longer review written, but my browser glitched. In short, these things rock! They're nicer than the Scarab RRs I had in that there's no extra material or throttle slippage. I rodered a size smaller and they are perfect! ![]() See this space for a review of my A* jacket when it comes.

I've been really happy with the Cortech SCARAB and Winter SCARAB. I don't know how well they'd perform at high speed crashes, but they are comfortable and the prices are at around $70/pair.

The Adrenaline cost $89.99 at Motorcycle-Superstore, but I got a K+N filter at the same time and used a $5 off coupon and got free shipping. Total came in at $97. Another great thing about the Cortech gloves- the gauntlets actually fit over my jacket cuffs. I tried on a pair of Shift SR-1s that didn't. Glove felt good, but the small gauntlet was a no-go. Ordered my A* Stunt 2 jacket from Sportbike Track Gear last Monday. (15% off ![]() Found a guy with a set of wheels. Soon as he gets back from vacation, I'm going to buy them. Also have a connection at work for race take offs. Just have to wait on another paycheck for my race plastics and I'm set!! ![]()

Got my jacket! Nice. Leather is thick, jacket feels solid- exactly what I expect from A*. Blue looks great, but I didn't realize the bottom was silver, not white. Doesn't really match my Track pants, but who cares?
Couple gripes though. It gets real tight at the elbow when I bend my arm all the way, and the elbow armor feels a little off, and the sleeves are a bit short. The torso fits right though. The zipper mates to my pants, but the jacket side is about 1.5" longer. The zipper's not a problem (I think), but I'm going to call tomorrow and see if I can get a tall size.
