Hot weather, short shower, get wet. Cool weather, rain all day, put on the rain suit. I have a HD rain suit, several years old, still keeps me mostly dry.
I use rain gear, and still usually get soaked! In the Texas pandhandle last year I even wore two sets (cheap Colemans under Frog Togs) through a downpour- and still got misserably wet. Guess I need to either start finding a sheltered port in the storm, or cut loose of the cash on an expensive Harley outfit.
I have the Harley Hi Vis and a thinner HD suit for light rain (or so they said). The truth is the light weight suit works pretty damn good in a torrential downpour, and it's about the size of a 6inch plate when folded up, so I use that unless I'm going on a real long road trip.
