 \\; \\; \\; Your local HD shop has several different price ranges for rain suits. I have one that I roll up and put in the hard bag of my RK. Did not pay much for it either.
Good luck.

Spend the money on \\;good rain gear and you won't regret it. I have the HD Gore-Tex two piece rain suit and I never get a drop of rain on me even when riding in downpours. It's Gore-Tex so it breathes and you don't feel like you're in a sauna. I bough mine online for 20 percent less than the dealer.

I prefer the Frogg Toggs here in Florida, lighter weight makes them a lot more comfortable in the heat and I haven't gotten into any rain that gets through them.

RE: rain suit recomendations
the only issue with the frog togs is that they are flimsy, but on the other hand, they are very reasonable.

RE: rain suit recomendations
I asked the same question in the "Which one should I get thread" but I'll post it here as well so we can consolidate:
I know there have been a thousand questions on rain gear, and I will buy the H-D stuff\\; but, a lot of the answers are just that- buy the H-D stuff.
Can I hear pros and cons on these three suits based on your experience, please?

I worry about visibility wearing gray.
I honestly appreciate your taking the time to respond to my question.
