#60358 dennyo2 (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 159 Rain gear 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Well, spring is coming and with the price of gas it looks like I'll be doing more riding in the spring, rain or shine and I'm going to need some rain gear. I was looking at Phat performance and seen a set I like. First Gear Rainman and would like to know if anyone uses this product and how you like it as far as fit and quality. If not what do you use? I would like a good set that I won't have to replace every year. I'll try to post a link, so here goes http://www.phatperformanceparts.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=50%2D5851 I don't know if that will work but this old guy is trying to learn how to use this newfangled equiptment Thanks Denny   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #60370 dennyo2 (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 159 Re:Rain gear 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Guess no one here uses rain gear!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I never used first Gear so I can't comment on it. I have frog toggs but I usually don't put them on. I just get wet.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #60377 Big Bear (Moderator) All things in moderation!

If I were smaller, I would probably consider a rain suit designed for motorcycle specific purposes, but old yellers kept me (mostly) dry on more than one occasion.

Started out with a yellow PVC rain suit from K-Mart. It worked OK but didn't last long; couldn't take the wind. Boots had to be off to put the pants on. I now have a rain suit from River Road. It is reinforced so that it can take the wind. It has zippers on the bottom of the legs so they can be put on with boots on. Ihe jacket has a flap to cover the zipper so that water doesn't come in through the zipper. I like them!

Gold Boarder Posts: 640 Re:Rain gear 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Hey dennyo2 Like Musky, I use Frog Toggs. They are light weight, but they still hold up well. They also take up less storage space than most. And most important for me, fast on,fast off. Unlike Musky, I'm a wus, I use mine sometimes. I had a set of First Gear rain gear. They were really well built, just took up more space.   Logged     CoachDans Bikes   The administrator has disabled public write access. #60423 thebru (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 668 Re:Rain gear 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   I use a Wal-Mart special found in their camping section. Have used it often and it works great. Couple trash bags for my feet tucked under the legs portion and secured with large rubber bands, and I am dry. Cheap but very effective!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #60427 Musky (Moderator) Doc took Grams beer Moderator Posts: 13499 Re:Rain gear 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   CoachDan wrote: Unlike Musky, I'm a wus, I use mine sometimes. I just ain't too bright. If it ain't raining I hate wearing them and once it starts raining I hate stopping to put them on. Why did I buy them?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #60434 dennyo2 (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 159 Re:Rain gear 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   I don't like the idea of wearing them either Musky, but I don't like wearing wet clothes at work all night. It kind of makes hard to keep my mind on the job Denny   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #60438 Musky (Moderator) Doc took Grams beer Moderator Posts: 13499 Re:Rain gear 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   I do put them on if I have a long way to go. I've spent more than one day at work with wet clothes. Like I said. I ain't too bright. Frog toggs have a new model out I might look at. You can get them in Yellow. Just have to see if they roll up as small as the ones I have now. Frog toggs   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
