I have the Overpass II and really like it.

Jafrum.com has a rainsuit for $39 that has nomex on the legs to avoid melting them on the pipes. I rode through a gully washer in it a few weeks ago and it works great.

I got one...

Went to the dealer today for the 10K mile service and bought a rain suit. I got the HD high-vis suit 98275-08VM.

We'll see how it holds up in the rain. It has heat shielding material from the ankle to above the knee on the right leg and many other features. It may or may not be the best, but it was made with people in mind who do one thing...ride harley davidsons. I am one of those...sold.

Thanks again to everyone who gave input.
