I certainly did not intend to anger the membership here.
I do apologize and I will do my best to refrain from posting such questions.

For stuff-able rain gear, the hiviz Harley gear is hard to beat. Beware cheap rain gear, it’s only for a brief shower. We’ve been on month trips, back to the east coast, to Alaska and stayed dry in my Harley gear.

Winter time, say below 40F I use cordura gear. I stay equally dry.

Most definitely KLIM gear. It eliminates rain gear and leathers off your bike, not to mention the added safety it provides. It's a no brainer. I've had the Lattitude and loved it. Switched over to the Badlands last year and that's even better. Well worth the money. I ride more than most and can say hands down, nothing on the market compares.

I have had great luck with Duluth and Grundens.

my Grundens overpants finally had a leg zipper failure while I was traveling over 100 mph, after many years of use
