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 Charlie T Parker, Colorado 00 Pegaso

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. Bill 6'5" almost and 230 (!)

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! Glenn

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). Devon glenn@... wrote:

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. Dreas

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! Glenn
