Title: rain gear
Post by: sticky on June 13, 2014, 03:41:15 AM
The reason I'm bring this up is its rained almost everyday I get a day off [finger3].Being rather on the short side I have issues with my rain pants burning up on my pipes.I have been using FrogToggs which have worked rather well,but curious as to what other brands that work well but have some kind of protection on the pipe side? Also That rainX shit works really well on my windshield and face sheild [wing]

lmao used to also when I was younger but now not so much;I've got a 7 day stretch between shifts in july.I've been riding to work in the rain every chance I get trying to see how I can improve my chances of staying totally dry.I'm gonna ride the blue ridge parkway come hell or high water in july;with or without the wife or anyone else that may back out [chopper]

Bump....Well after leaving for the rally in Maine this past Thursday there has to be something better.When you get stuck on a highway for 3 hours with no escape and its torentiual down pour you know you hog togs have reached their limit.Trust me with a simple rain you can't go wrong but a 3 hour can't see 2 feet in front of you down pour well you unfortunately find good things out like you need to invest in a better rain suit.So hence my quest is on
