The Wolfman Peak tail bag is a convenient size and shape for it's intended purpose. The materials and workmanship look good. My major criticism is that the four tie-down straps are attached near the top of the sidewalls of the bag. The sidewalls are somewhat flexible so if you try to cinch the bag down tight (to put tension on the metal hooks that fasten to your bike) the sidewalls will deform and partially collapse. If the sidewalls collapse you lose the tension needed to hold the metal hooks in place on your bike. Even if you don't use the metal hooks and just cinch the straps together under the tail of your bike (using the supplied strap extensions) you can only tighten the straps a moderate amount before the sidewalls deform.
Design Suggestion: Sew the four attachment tie-down straps at the bottom of the sidewall to eliminate the problem. Adding elasticated tie down straps would help with maintaining tension so the hooks don't come loose.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Steady predictable grip, better that the Bridgestone Battlewings they replaced. Not much use off road, but I wasn't expecting them to.

I have about 7000 miles on these gloves and they still look and feel great. They have molded into a perfect riding position and have not stretched or deformed. With the heated grips and handguards on my R1200GS these are true 3-season gloves for the NE part of the country. I can't judge the airflow really well because of the handguards but when holding the glove out in the airstream they do seem to flow air very well through the perforations between the fingers. I like them well enough that I am buying as a back up pair to use when the other pair gets soaked in the rain. I followed the size up recommendation and the XL fits me snugly so I feel I have excellent feel and control.

I bought a pinlock shield and a clear pinlock lens for night time and a dark smoke lens for sunny days for my XL Shoei Qwest. The lens covers almost the entire opening (~95%) of the helmet and there are only very small areas at the sides that aren't covered. It was important to me to get a tinted lens that covered the entire field of vision so that no distracting sunlight would penetrate the helmet around the lens and this lens works very well with my Shoei Qwest to do that. There has been absolutely no fogging even riding in 33 degree F weather so the visibility is great.

Gerbing's Coil Cord Extension Coax male plug on one end and a 90 coax female plug on the other end. Just like the cord that connects a phone to the handset, this extension provides for a greater range of motion. 1 ft compressed length stretches up to 4 feet total length.

Useful for those that forget to unplug before getting off their bike.

I bought this product for those occasions when you forget to unplug your Gerbing gear before getting off the bike and end up tripping on the wire or yanking it out of the socket. This acts as a shock cord which will flex even if you forget to unplug.

What's the proper way to maintain these leather gloves?

I've had a pair for two years now and I love them, great all around gloves. I've had some white/blue stuff show up recently on the glove, even after cleaning it off it comes back. What's the best way to clean and maintain these gloves?
I have had good results using the Nikwax, "Glove Proof" for light cleaning/waterproofing and Nikwax waterproofing wax for leather which is a thicker and provides better waterproofing. Not sure what the white/blue stuff is that is showing up on your gloves.
