Just got back from my first 'rain trip' to Arkansas on the harley. Forgot about the hot pipe issue, and now have holes on both legs of my toggs. I know harley makes rain pants with heat resistant material in the inner leg, but when I was fueling the bike my left leg brushed up against the pipes and burned a hole in that leg too. I need to find something with the material wrapped all the way around the leg from knee down. Anyone know of something out there?

 

I took my HD rain suit and after having the same issue with "holes" I had the wife take some black flame retardant material like from a welding supply and sew nice patches on the inside of each pant leg. She did a great job and it looks like they came that way.

 

I wear First Gear Overpants. They are are a 100% waterproof textile riding pant, with a removable quilted liner and hip to cuff 2 way zippers. They have a knee to cuff 3/4 wrap around heat resistant shell that I have truely tested. They are by far the best all around all weather riding overpant I have ever had. They run about $180. and up. I don't make my wife sew anything onto my gear.

 

I didn't "make" her do it, she offered

 

so these are waterproof and eat resistant.......are they BREATHABLE?????

 

Hmmm, I guess El Diablo is making a comeback! Think I'll stay tuned in.

 

True dat! He's in need of a blanket party

1. The MSR Pak Pants are the perfect emergency wet weather addition to your Back Pak or Fanny Pak

3. When the sun shines, just take your Pak Pants off and stuff them into their self-contained pouch for easy storage
4. Waterproof 3-layer nylon shell with ballistic nylon in high-wear areas and all seams sealed with 3-layer seam tape
5. Side zippers on each leg allow Pak Pants to be put on over your boots

 

It may be after the fact but if you had a crotch cooler on your bike your rain gear would not look like Swiss Cheese..https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...that-work.html
