I have the wierdest problem with my gloves. I like them they fit and work fine except on my Vespa. They don't flex enough to reach the turn signal with my thumb and still work the brake. On my ruck it's fine since the signal is real close. I can reach it with no gloves, but I'd like to have gloves.
Gloves.
I guess I need to go shop for some gloves.

Do you have webbed fingers? 😉 Strange problem. Not normally something you check for when buying gloves. Might have to buy a slightly bigger size. Could just buy a new scooter?

Time for new gloves, or if you gloves are high quality leather, you gotta keep breaking them in. The PX is a reach, when I bought my last pair I had to make sure that there was enough movement to do the same thing, especially as there is no adjust on that bike. Matt

Maybe you need one of them handy-dandy thumb extenders?

Maybe the thumb extender!!!
These gloves are not going to break in anymore than they are. I’ve worn these for years. They just aren’t meant to flex that much I guess. I guess time to go get some others... But good to hear I’m not wrong that that is a hell of a stretch to the signal.

I have a different pair for every bike ! LOL Sounds stupid but on my motorcycles i like to feel the grip in my palm and some gloves don't let you have that feel. The weather can make your gloves fit bad or just plain old age and sweating and fast drying can cause that .

Got some new gloves that aren't as strong as my main gloves, but I can hit the turn signal on my vespa. I almost t-boned a car on the way to soccer because I didn't signal and some other guy was coming over. Their material will break in.

Don't feel bad, even astronauts have major glove problems.
