Years of riding and research has led me to the conclusion that there is no one "catch all" suit. It's a matter of compromise.

I love my heated gear.
Man, I wish. Being short and round I haven't found anything off the rack that fits in years. It's always a 1XL masquerading as a 5XL because it's in European sizes, or it actually fits my gut but I have to be 7 feet tall. Even after losing 159lbs, I'm STILL too rotund to fit into normal gear, so I have my leathers custom made. New custom jacket should be shipping sometime this week.
It just dawned on me that I never posted a pic of my jacket when it came in.
