Bob I've got a Motodry rainsuit that packs into a bum bag which is part of the suit.I've worn it over my leathers and it kept everything dry.

:D Check in bike mags, but most 1 piece suits these days are very good (unlike the shower proofs we used to have).

Does it rain in australia then? I thought it was a desert!
I use an overjacket in bright yellow intended for cyclists, it is tight over leathers but means no flapping sleeves. I only bother with overtrousers if it is really pissing down. I do have a one piece suit but i hate it. It flaps like mad and you sweat buckets in it.

I got a rain suit RST from the local bike shop . Had to go to 2XL size to fit over my riding jacket / pants and also ordered a pair of andy strapz over gloves that a mate used on a holiday to NZ , said they where brilliant for rain and keeping out the cold . All I need now is rain to test my new summer collection

I've had a Sidi one-piece for over 6 years now and it's still good to go!
