How to stay dry on a motorcycle 

Glad you like them!

Thank you for watching the video. Yes is part of the experience but why not being comfortable if you can.

I can also confirm that this gear is mega! Tested in torrential rain... and no issues! Plus... these are somehow breathable too!

Happy to hear that, we find Scott Ergo a very good product!

@@MickBla what do you wear under? just normal gear? im trying to get waterproof stuff and just cant accept the prices that companies like rukka and klim charge. if there is an overlayer that basically does the same job im all for it

@@hisride Hi, when I purchased the Scott set, my jacket / trousers combo was a Held set (Gore-Tex/Cordura mix). Due to the fact that this set had some serious millage / age on the clock, the waterproof feature of it was essentially gone... Scott outer shell effectively guarantees you being dry regardless of what it is covering underneath. Currently though, I am using the Halvarssons mesh base layer and Merino wool Mid layer (also from Halvarssons), on top of this I have Klim Marrakesh and Klim Zephyr ... and for the really cold days there is a Tog24 (lol) down jacket... Regarding the lower section, I am now using Rokker chinos (water resistant version). Boots are Daytona Road Star Gtx Pro , and I have a few Rukka gloves (mesh and full leather/ Gore-Tex )... so, as you can see, my current set is more on the expensive end, but... it works really well! Recently I've been riding in +40C (full sunshine) and +5C (torrential rain) and all the above (using different components depending on the situation) performed flawlessly! I had Akito set in the past with Frank Thomas boots, later some Dainese boots and Held clothing combo... and I was happy with these for a long time. But, the current set is hands down the most comfortable one and offers amazing flexibility matching the riding weather conditions. In my view,... and for how I am using the bike now - it's a great investment. Happy shopping! :)

@@MickBla that sounds really good. im going to go the same way in terms of the mesh base layer and merino mid layer. where i live temperature rarely goes below 0 celcius or above 30 so I could get away with a leather set and wear base mid layers / the scott set (which i have now purchased 😃) accordingly. of course that setup wont cover the extremes but because it happens so rarely i may just suffer on those days!

Thank you for your kind words, keep an eye on our videos and maybe you will find more useful information!

Thank you for the kind words and for watching us!

Thank you for watching!

Thank you for doing that and for your message!

Thank you! Don't forget to use a special detergent for motorcycle gear (Rukka Storm Ultimate Wash and Proof Kit, Storm Wash and Proof)

@@Motolegends Thank you for that. And all the best for the festive season.

You can always choose a Scott Ergo rain jacket and trousers. Featuring a stretchable and breathable outer material with laminated DRYOsphere membrane for perfect fit and comfortable wind/weather protection, it also delivers minimum packing volume

Thank you for watching!

So not sure how heavyweight the item in the middle is that you are looking for. Clearly depends on the temperature. In summer months you could wear something like the Klim Basecamp shirt over your breathable base, in spring and autumn something with outlast perhaps like the Rokker Performance range of T-shirts and then colder weather a mid-layer like the Klim Yukon or Rukka Aldrich. The Icebreaker merino range has lots of different weights so could be used in any weather but not sure if you consider the look of traditional base layers not normal enough!

Much appreciated!

That is always an option!

Jason, let me check that out, but every brand talks about waterproof zips until they aren’t. And I have in mind the first time I was told by Rukka that Rukka zips were waterproof but not guaranteed to be so! The zips on the Stadler do look the business, but I will write to Mr. Stadler tomorrow to get the bottom line. Guarantee or not, I cannot recall a single instance of a Stadler zip leaking. I will respond on RU-vid as soon as I get an answer. CP

@@Motolegends I'm pretty sure the suit does what it says on the tin! I've not experienced anything concerning in it yet, top quality and I love your ethos of only selling products you are satisfied with 100% and happy to stand behind their claims! 👍

Jason, i have now heard back from Mr. Stadler, and he has confirmed to me that the Aquaseal zips he uses are waterproof, and guaranteed to be so, although the Stadler warranty on zips is limited in duration. But my point is that waterproof zip does not inevitably mean ‘guaranteed’ waterproof any more than a waterproof membrane means the membrane is guaranteed to withstand ingress. I am not wanting to sound tricky, but these things are rarely absolute. CP

If you have some serious questions, and want some serious answers, ask the Chap in the Cap! Link here where you can click and write to Chris: mailchi.mp/motolegends.com/ask-the-chap?e=74777539dd

Yes, they do exist. Klim has one. Rukka also has one, but they seem to be discontinuing a lot of their neckwear. CP

@@Motolegends do you have them in stock??

Yes, we do. Comes in S, M or L. Cost is £59.99. www.motolegends.com/accessories/rws-winter-neck-warmer.html

Sealskinz make a balaclava and Halvarrsons a neck tube.

@@Motolegends thank you

Not sure what the question is? This piece was about staying dry. Klim makes waterproof gear, as do most manufacturers. CP

@@Motolegends hi Chris my point was you say a 5 year guarantee when I got my klim kit it was a lifetime warranty yes agree with you that it’s not cheap but you get what you pay for and after 7 years it’s still going strong keep up the good work with the videos not only entertaining but very informative

No, that’s 25% of the people who return their gear for a claim. But it’s a tiny, tiny proportion of buyers who have a problem or believe they have a problem. Top of head, I would suggest that less than 0.1% of garments have a water-ingress related issue. CP.

@@Motolegends Doh! That sure makes better sense. Thanks
