Same problem guys, please recommend me a jacket that has a decent size cuff opening (when cuff unzipped) so I don't have a battle getting my glove inside the cuff !

Rukka Navigator Jacket works for me. Zip cuff plus velcro tab that allows you to pre-set the cuff size, so just the zip to close, once you have set the width. To make it really easy, i undo the zip, roll the cuffs back, then when I put on my gloves, they cover the whole inner part of the double cuff. Then unroll the cuff downwards, and close zips.
This double cuff seems to cover both leak scenarios. No draught upward and no rain downwards.
To give you an idea of the size of the glove, I'm using the BMW "double inner glove", and the Rukka version, and no issues.

Thanks Broken - Unfortunately I can't stretch to £1k for a Rukka jacket.
Surely there must be 'normal priced' jackets with a decent cuff opening ?

I have BMW GS Dry jacket. No problem getting my winter Halverssons gloves inside the jacket cuff. The jacket has a wide opening with Velcro tension strap. No faffing about with zips. Chester Motoradd have 30% off them currently.
Put your gloves on before you put on your jacket
I don't have a problem at all with my jacket; short gloves pretty much all year round making use of heated grips and muffs if the weather dictates. Alpine SMX Air's are my fave as they double up as a good off road glove.

On the odd occasion that I wear heavy, cuffed gloves, I just tuck the jacket into them and can honestly say that I have never had water run into the gloves.
I genuinely don't see what the problem is

They have both a zip and a Velcro wrap to enable easier fitting and removal
