I am having a difficult time finding a rain suit or a aerostitch suit
that will fit me.
I am 6'4" and weigh 300lbs. I know what your thinking. Loose 50lbs!
Even if I did that they would still be too short.
Anybody have any other suggestions?
Thanks

Hein Gericke/Firstgear make stuff in tall sizes, check them out. You
could get a Kilimanjaro jacket in XXXL tall and pants in long sizes.
I have 'em.

Well, you think you have it tough... I'm 6'10". I ordered the Body
Guard jacket from motoport to see how much it would need to be
altered to fit. They're going to custom make me one for $149! I
ordered pants from Aerostitch to try on. They can alter them to fit
my 40" inseam. Great service from both companies. HIGHLY
RECOMMENDED!

Damn, I look like a little kid that stole a grown-up's motorcycle by
comparison. 5'7" 150lb, no lowering links. Is there anyone on the list who
actually outweighs their KLR?
Which aerostich pants did you get? I got a pair of the Dianese armoured
underpants, they look like a cross between a Storm Trooper and a figure
skater. I wear baggy jeans over these, but I would like to get a pair of
simple cordura pants instead (weather etc).

I'm 6'4", 220lbs, and a 48L Roadcrafter is long enough, but at 300lbs you
might find it a little snug around the middle. The Darien is also long
enough, and roomier.

I ordered the regular Darien pants. They haven't arrived yet, but
I'm looking forward to seeing them. I can forget about Motocross
pants and even some so-called long or tall duds aren't all that long
or tall. Funny that Alpinstars doesn't make tall-ish clothing since
they make MX boots up to a size 16!
