Looking for a good rain suit?
Ok,
I'm thinking about picking up a good rainsuit for the bike. I'm leaning towards Frogtogs, but I wanted to get some other ideas. Alot of the rainsuits I see are really long in the back, so they might not work on a sportbike. My main requirements are that: the suit be waterproof, it breathes somewhat, and is visible (bright color, reflective, or both). So what is everyone here using for a rainsuit? |
m2r one piece was like 20 bucks from iron pony, stands up to 100mph speeds keeps me dry, just isnt very breatheable
|
M2R from Iron Pony. Keeps me dry, keeps me warm, and it's only $20.
|
Tourmaster Sentinel Rain suit $120 for the set and the pants zip together with the jacket
|
friggin hate rainsuits, but I have found the teknic one works well, approx $40-60 and comes in a lovely shade of flourescent yellow (note the sarcasm)...also, the cheap ones from walmart will hold up for a trip or 2 in case of emergency($20-50)...military issued rain gear is also quite nice, and I have yet to find a rainsuit that breathes!
just a heads up to ya'll that ride with luggage, i hear alot of complaints about luggage rain covers, you can take a poncho or even an old rainsuit jacket, bungee it around your bag and it works awesome. Make sure you keep out what you need however, cuz its a bitch to get in and out of... |

http://www.ironpony.com/ironponydire...IRT%20PRODUCTS I don't know if you wear extra small or not... Also,they don't seem to carry the one piece anymore but they do have a Tourmaster 2-piece for $23. |
I was looking at a tour master one... one nice thing is it had an elastic hood that went UNDER your helmet... to help keep your neck and back dry from water entering the collar
|
I have a Nelson Riggs 2 piece rain suit. Works great and it's easy to get on too. ( I wear size 11-1/2 EEEE boots. )
It's a two piece and has plenty of reflective strips on it. Worked very well this morning during the "gully washer" I rode to work in. Jeff |
All the riders I camped with at Sturgis were raving about Frogtogs and how great they are.
