The wife and I bought the HD rainsuits. Total $ for both was about $225. Spent three hours in the rain on the way to Daytona and the only thing that got wet were our boots. Definitely worth the money. My advice is to buy a suit specifically made for riding. Some friends we were riding with stopped at Walmart and bought a couple of suits. Big mistake since the plastic pants melted on their pipes.

I've been caught in some pretty good downpours with FroggToggs. Highly recommend.

have the tour master suit, spend the extra on the nomex pants panel. I didn't the first time and melted them. What ever you get try it on, ESPECIALLY around the neck. mine fit good till I needed to fasten them all the way up then it chokes me and I can't turn my head, if I don't fasten everything up then it leaks around the neck and trickles down to my shirt......

My wife and I both have the Tourmaster Sentinel rainsuits and they are the best I have tried. I have a set of frogg toggs that i wore once and they are somewhere out on a shelf in my garage. They work good enough to get you to a dry place to wait out the rain but not to keep riding in the rain. The Sentinel worked great for me when we left in the rain on a 4600 mile trip this past June. I have a pair of buddies with the HD stuff and they like them but they sure were looking awful hard at my outfit the last time we were out. The best part is that they are only about a $100 a set. I got mine at http://motorcycle-superstore.com/. At the time they had the best price going.

Tour Master two piece. Good flexibility, medium weight. Has kept me dry in all situations and I use it from time to time to keep warm when I get caught in the cold.

We use the Frogg Toggs pants with no bibs and jacket. They're not much of a fashion statement even in cobolt blue...well it's some kind of hue of blue...but they keep us dry and compact down nice for strorage.
