Sometimes, no matter how good a product is, a writer just runs dry trying to think of interesting ways to write a review. While being dry in the creative department is not good for a writer, being dry in the body department is great for a rider.Too often I have worn raingear here in “sunny” Florida only to find that I get almost as wet as I would have had I ridden without the rainsuit. This usually happens for one of two reasons; 1) The raingear isn’t built very well (no matter how much it cost) which allows moisture to seep in through the seams; and 2) The raingear doesn’t breathe very well thereby causing you to sweat profusely. Either of those scenarios, in a word, suck.
In the first scenario you can end-up looking like you peed your pants (1-piece rain suit + cruiser = wet crotch: trust me on this one) while the second option leaves you smelling like you just ran a marathon. Sometimes you get really lucky and get a rainsuit that doesn’t breathe AND leaks – those are the moments that make you question your decision to ride a motorcycle.
Put not thine bike up for yet my fellow 2 Wheel Freaks for Nelson Rigg has a solution….and a reasonably priced one as well if you value your odor and dryness – The Nelson Rigg Volante VTL-700 2-Piece rainsuit. Or as it says on the front of the hang-tag, “Rainsut”. I’m glad their QC department was on the ball more than their Spell Checking department.
