ps but riding in really heavy rain with poor visibility /visor steaming up just isn't safe. Pulling over and waiting for it to pass is the only safe option sometimes.

I've never had any issues with my Alpinestars Andes V2 jacket/trouser set. Never got wet in them at all - even in torrential rains.
Same for my Dainese Goretex gloves, & Alpinestars Goretex boots.
And i can now say the same for my Scott DP overproofs too - they are very waterproof, windproof and breathable.
