What new ADV riding gear are you going to be buying with your new bike?

Tabasco, here is a link to AeroSTich. For the Darien Jacket, there is also the Darien Lite stuff too, I just got the lite pants tan color!!!

For the boots, to me the SIDI ADventure Rain or Gore-Tex look good, as do the Sidi Canyon Gore-Tex, but not avail in my size!!!! IT all depends on what you want in a boot, and how small your foot is.

Will do. I've had a love/hate relationship with aerostich. I have loved my RC and hated it when it leaks in rain, so have to add waterproof undergear but with the new zippers it may be used more. I wish there was a little bit of a mesh lining in the darien gear, but I can wear a light wicking long sleeve shirt so should be enough. We will see.

Your experience with the RC is about the same as mine. For years it was all I wore, but later bought my Darien and used the RC only for commuting. For all "day rides" or for touring, I wear the Darien. Since my retirement, the RC gets very little use and I have thought about selling it - but who would want a 13-14 year old faded out red (more pink now) suit?!?!

I'm wearing the BMW version of one of these - not sure which. Very happy with them!

My Tourmaster mesh Air 2 ought to go well with the Raven black!

Treat the Roadcrafter one piece per Aerostitchs recommendations and no leaky. Mine has never leaked but I treated teh main zipper (all the zippers actually) and it works. i only use my one piece for commuting or spirited sport rides. I have had my roadcrafter two piece jacket leak before under the arm zipper but this was no average rain storm it was a flood.

For me it was the Darien jacket and the AD1 pants.

I've been breaking them in in advance of getting the ST by wearing them out to the mailbox to the get the mail...the neighbor's dog just proved the pants are waterproof, uh...leak proof
