Yeah, if they come down to a sane price it'll be daft for road riders not to get them I reckon, unless they want to hang around with Lozzo and brag about how wet they are and making fun of the bone dry BMW riders :mrgreen: But right now they're just too spendy. Then again, Rukka stuff is always spendy even when it's not doing anything interesting.

I'll stick to my textile kit for now. Leathers are fine when it's warm and sunny but if the weather's ropey then decent goretex textile kit is so much more practical.

if the waterproof leathers come down in price a lot i'd definitely be interested be great only having one set of gear instead of a pile of stuff all over the place.

and I should think people would be happy not to have to go through the whole fiasco of getting in and out of one piece waterproofs :-D

hein gericke are going to do them for £1200 for the whole suit but they do 0% finance over 12 months.

That's still an extortionate amount. You could get a very good set of leathers, a very good set of textiles and a very good set of waterproofs for that amount of money!!

It's got a Rukka badge on it, of course it's extortionately overpriced for what it is.

or another bike. In fact shopping in the right places you could probably get another bike along with the leathers, textiles and waterproofs :-D
