I have an el-cheapo style rain suit and it has melted to my pipes one time too many. It has to go!!!

I want to get a suit in which the right leg will not melt to my pipe. Does the beast exist? I am not even concerned with whether or not it says HD. I just want to keep the pipes free of melted nylon and crap.

Your experiences and input are welcome...and thanks in advance!

I bought a 2 piece for under $40.00 ,and it works awesome, and it fits well.
I got it from moto direct, which is here in Indiana, scroll down on the page that is where the 2 piece sets are. I got the HL-5031 in black ,and silver.

Look for a suit that has the heat shield material. I believe Nelson-Rigg makes one.

 

I picked up this suit in orange of course! It has panels on the insides of the legs that keeps your suit from melting on your pipes, on both legs not just the right side.

HD and Tourmaster have great rain gear, I have the HD high vis one and love it, ride in the rain half the year in Fla. Well worth the $.

 

I have the HD 'packable' rain suit. Works quite well.

 

Check into Frogg Toggs. They make several motorcycle-specific rainsuits that are outstanding. Both their Leep Frogg and Elite models are good choices.

 

Have used First Gear and Tour Master, over the years. Both make rain suits and great year round riding gear.

 

Stay away from Tourmaster.

I bought one of their rainsuits from Dennis Kirk. I ended up with an abrasion after using it for 3 days staright comng back from Sturgis. I tried calling and emailing Tourmaster and they would not reply. I called Dennis Kirk and they made it right but I never did hear back from Tourmaster.

Their customer service Stinks with a capital "S"!

 

If you want it to last and if its going to be used often go HD.
