I use an oil-cloth duster and H-D gaiters. Works pretty good for me.

when I took the Riders Edge Course, I went to Walmart and got the cheapest 2 peice that would fit my Fat A$$. Still have not used it yet either tho.

Full leathers kept well waxed

I have used Frogg-Toggs for a year now and they work good. Do not let them touch your pipes, they melt in a second.

Frogg Toggs are great. They store well. Only problem. They're like exhaust pipe magnets. Will need a rubber bank on your right leg.

I agree with the must have boot covers. Best thing is to go with what suits you. Always a little trial and error. At one time I actually thought that a cheapo yellow rain-suit would work..........ripped apart after about ten minutes at speed....was quite hilarious actually!!!!!

Chaps, Jacket, jungle boots, possibly a face mask. Works in very heavy rain and wind. Am dry inside, and the boots dry quickly. The boots are also very comfortable in summer heat.

I had a set of Wally-World Rain gear I bought 4 years ago. I gave it to Ray 2 weeks ago when he was over. I never took it out of the original packaging! Harness boots, Chaps and a Leather Jacket. That's been my rain gear...

I'm about 40yrs. into the bike game, have never owned rain gear. I did have a poncho one time. It wasn't much good above 3mph, though.

Like the words to an old classic...."It never rains in California" !!!!! (Yea, right..... it's in the forecast for this afternoon !!)

Hey Grunt, If you haven't got any rain gear yet, let me know what size you are and I'll send you a 2 piece set at no charge, if you'll give me a review on what you like or don't like about it. I don't intentionally ride in the rain, but just 2 weeks ago got caught in Concord, NC in a downpour, with nowhere to get out of the rain. If you ride in the South, the afternoon heat storms can catch you off guard. On long rides & trips, they are great to take along. The ones I have are bright yellow. If you are on the road in the rain, you NEED TO BE SEEN, by the idiot cagers. Let me know!

I totally agree w/hwy bar chaps gary, also w/ early spring, late fall, keeps you warmer!

 i don't have rain gear. and i ride in the rain. and i ride in ireland!
LOL

Usually in Florida when you see rain up ahead by the time you pull over, unstrap it and put it on the sun is shining again.

I grabbed a pair from Jafrum.com ..... $29.95 and it's all I need. I don't normally like to ride in the rain but you never know out here in the Great Northwest when the sh*ts gonna hit so I carry these in my saddle bags at all time. But I do love the "My rain gear is the nearest bar!!! " Ohh yea ....

I find that Skiing gear is about the best, warm as well, and thats saying a lot coming from Ireland, where it rains on average 220 days a year

RIDE NEKID !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just bought the harley ride ready packable, cause I wanted something packable and with heat shields ( dont want meted plastic on my pipes) I'll try to pst after I use to let y'all know.

North Wisconsin has some very cold wet opening fishing days. I have invested in the Economical (cheep) plastic and done the Garbage bag cover also but after a snow opening week end I stopped in a Gander Mountain Store. Much like Bass Pro. They had Guide Series treated heavy cotten with gortex lined 2 piece suits. Pants are tall bib with wide shoulder suspender straps. 3 velcro close patch pockets and velcro ankle straps and fly cover. Coat is same construction with 4 pockets, zipper close front with storm velcro flap cover. Hood is attached and foldable but light enough to be worn under helmet. I Safety Yellow with black contact patches (knees, inner legs, butt and elbows. Also has back vent and cover. Wrist is velcro close also. I have been on the 4 lanes for 8 hrs of rain at speed and had a small vee wet under my chin. Does not flap or flutter, can wear speedo or full leathers under the suit and be comfortable. Also comes in X small to XXX Large and Tall. Packs in a neat roll but not a Pocket size. My present suit is water resistant Kevelar that will take quit a lot of water and wind speed to dampen the content. Is also cool ride with air breathable material. Also comes with stom zip-in liner and cold quilt linning good for -20. does get warm sitting in a traffic stop on the panting steed. Wear it always and is machine washable. Also has Certified (?) Body Armor...All work great and been Personally Tested (weather and crash)
