I wear deerskin gloves from Home Depot. They are softer and warmer than leather, and won't turn your hands black if it rains. I still have the pair I bought three years ago when I bought my CB500XA. They are still in good shape, although faded from the sun after 33,000 kilometers.
When I bought my CB1100 EX in May, I treated myself to a new pair.
In cold weather I wear insulated suede deerskin gloves. When the riding season is over, I walk a local nature trail for an hour a day. I found insulated suede deerskin gloves to be much warmer than insulated leather gloves. Under -20 F I switch to insulated nylon mitts. Fingers stay warmer when the are all huddled together. If my thumbs get cold, I slip them in with the rest of the digits.
