So two Saturdays ago I lowsided my R6. During the fall I ground down the back of one of my A* GP Tech gloves. The palms are fine, the rest of the glove is fine, only the knuckle guard is a little shorter.

Not wanting to bin a $300 pair of gloves, my brain kicked in, yes it can happen.

So a little JB Weld, some aluminium sheet metal, tin snips and a bench grinder later, I give you repaired gloves!

Oh, and after this crash I will only wear a full, gaunlet glove. If it has not been for the full glove, and the wrist strap they may have come off.
