Rainwear question ?

[C908]

I was wondering if any of you are using the 1 piece Dainese rain suit ? I'm considering this suit as a replacement for my Nelson Riggs that has leaked in the ******. I'm hoping I can get some honest feedback on the Dainese suit. Thanks for your comments.

I really like my Made in the USA, Aerostich. A bit warm but a great all around piece of riding gear. I have over 40 thousand on mine and been in a serious downpour in them and stayed dry.

I'm sure it's a quality piece but to expensive for a retired guy like myself.

My Cortech Air 3 Mesh is waterproof, cool in the sun and warm in the cold!
A GREAT jacket! I have two!
Prefer the separate pants as they usually puke out sooner.

I use a two piece set I picked up here at Louis.de. It was pretty inexpensive, but effective as can be. I've also found it's the best "cold" weather overlay I could possibly own! Rarely use the pants because my textiles waterproofing are too notch. The jacket is too easy to just keep in a tank bag, put on in a matter of a minute, and ride on. I know that doesn't help with the dianese review, but at least you know there are other good options

Old saying "get what you pay for" ... 100 miles from home with a cold wet ****** .. bad time for that to come into your head , just saying.

That's f#ckin disturbing ... thanks for planting that image in my already troubled sub-conscious more therapy I guess.

I just use some dirt cheap "Proof" pants from Louis.eu and they've kept my ****** bone dry during 8-hour downpours. The Spidi jacket I use keeps water out just fine with no extra addons.

The Aerostitch is reportedly great but it's not so much a rain suit as a generic riding suit, eventually it will soak through.

http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle-rain-gear - lots of choices. Going with a one-piece oversuit is probably best; the Dainese gets good reviews. The Rev'it Pacific also looks good.

In the US - I hear glowing reports about Frogg Toggs.
