After my experience or lack thereof on my recent roadtrip where it rained for 7 days straight my best advice is to focus on waterproof footwear and gloves. I had a generic rainsuit (not motorcycle), Timberland boots, and gortex gloves. It got ugly.
A great learning experience. Next roadtrip I WILL be prepared.

I've got Frog Toggs also. I heard about the melting thing and put black duct tape on the right leg where it might come into contact with the pipes. I have worn them 3 times in the rain and no problems at all. I like them because they are so light and breathable and don't make you sweat.
