    I like the Tourmanster Elite 3.0 Rain pants with Nomex (protects leg from hot pipes)

    I think they are worth the little extra. They are strong and fit over your riding gear. Quick easy on and of without removing boots (zippers on legs)

    I have ridden 6+ hours in the driving rain and not gotten wet with the Tourmaster Elite 3.0 (very important to get the Nomex heat protection)

    I have a set of WetSkins with a reflective trim that are very good. Not a fashion statement by any means.
    2013 F6B in black of course

    Now you have me puzzled

    A couple of guys bought the raingear with heat protection against hot pipes. Where are you running into hot pipes on the F6b

    I believe the leak came from the seams not completely sealed!
    I will assume Frogg Togg is more repellent not water proof..
    Bummer. Mine work great. Been in a few downpours too.

    Back in the early 80's I bought a DriRider rain suit, only because it was the only thing available in stock at the local dealer.
    It was a one-piece suit, worked great in the rain, I used it for quite a few years, always kept me dry.
    After riding through a torrential downpour last year, decided to get a new one.
    The new DriRider is just as well made as my old one, packs up fairly small, only had a chance to use it once, but it kept me nice and dry.
