After doing a lot of research and reading reviews I ordered a Nelson Riggs AS-3000. This suit comes with a no hassle 2 yr warranty and had all of the features I was looking for and then some. I just couldn't justify paying $185.00 for the Harley Hi Viz with only a 90 day warranty. The Nelson Riggs is also available in Hi Viz with all of the features of the Harley suit plus some additional features. The fit was accurate according to the size chart. This suit retails for $89.99 but can be found for less.I ordered from JC Motors out of California and received free shipping. This was my first time doing business with JC Motors and everything was on time and as promised. As long as this suit keeps me dry I will be very happy with my choice.

I snagged one of these sets last spring and like it real well, added a set of boot covers with them. No leaks, great protection and they are vented in such a way that they keep you comfortable, not where your sweating so hard you might as well of left it off!
I used the jacket as an outer layer wind block while making an early morning run to Austin a couple of weeks back and was glad I had it!
Pants, jacket and boot covers all fit into an included pouch that ends up about the size of a small football.

I use military issue Goretex parka and overpants. I prefer using the desert camo because it is built lighter. Underarm to elbow zipper and rear vents allow lots of venting yet still kept me dry. I can put them on very quickly. Parka works very well with summer mesh motorcycle jackets.

That Nelson Rigg set looks to have a lot of features for the price. How compact does it fold up for storage?
