I recently purchased a two piece Richa rainsuit, I was looking at the BMW suit, but the price was a bit steep. The Richa suit is about 40% cheaper, and this weekend I had the opportunity to try it out, it was raining fairly hard when we left Graskop.
The suit was easy to put on, big zips in the legs of the pants make it easy to pull over my enduro boots, the jacket went over my BMW Rally2 clothing with no problems. The neck fastens quite tightly, so water ingress will be minimal.
The sizing is well thought out, if you wear an XL bike jacket, you order an XL rainsuit, it is made to go over the normal sizes that you wear, no need to add on a few X's to ensure a good fit.
The overlap between pants and jacket is quite big, ensuring a dry ride in heavy rainstorms.
Overall, I am impressed with the product.
