    Love my EnduroGuard. It's survived a dump in mud. Its my go to touring suit but it is still a bit warm for hot summer weather.
    Just be prepared for the sleeve velcro to tire. Some have returned the jackets on warranty for that. Since my Jacket went on adventures with me I opted to add 2 heavy duty snaps per sleeve instead.
    Cheers

    Just brought this suit from BMW Motorrad Bohling in Germany for £598, plus import vat at £118 and then got a German vat refund of £105 back from BMW Bohling, so £611 total cost =half price. Looking forward to full testing British winter weather. in last week's commute of 400 miles in rain each day, not one drop through, wearing less layers and really comfortable. Yes it's a bit stiff at present, but hopefully will soften up a bit and it will have the test of a 3,500 miles European WW2 tour this year through 10 countries.

      You got a great deal, I am looking at purchasing the enduroguard pants from the same seller, how do you find the fit? Is the waist stretchy? I believe the pants a bit on the large size, your advise will be much appreciated as you can imagine purchasing online is always a bit difficult when it comes to sizing. Thanks

      @@allenfazer I'm 5'10" about 13 stone 40" chest, 36" waist, and i got size 54 in top and bottom. Fits me spot on. I layered up for the winter no problem. the waist is not stretchy but has Velcro adjusters to pull in and out, along with the winter and summer zip waist connectors to the jacket. It feels bulky and heavy to be honest, but once it is on you don't notice it. I've been in torrential downpours for hours, snow storms, icy cold conditions and there has been no sign of any leakage anywhere in the suit, most impressed. It does let through the cold though, so i wore my old jackets thermal liner inside. after it had been soaked in the wet weather, whilst on the bike, the outer layer was dry again within 30 minutes. Summers coming so we will see how it copes with the heat later this year riding around Europe. I love it and it was worth spending the money on it.

    The Enduroguard is a great choice and a very underrated riding gear. Because of the very discreet product logo (colorless grey bmw emblen) can be used ,without embarrassment, on bikes other than bmw. I recently bought the Enduroguard and can highly recommend it. The little hook on the pants could have been better, but nothing else to complain about. The suit has so many nice details. Many happy rides, love your channel. 👍

He has used the suit for 2 years and thinks it is incredibly good. The suit is not cheap but has state of the art protection and has been developed by people who really ride. I am not sponsored, just like you , want the most for my money. There are,of course, more expensive suits, but this for me tops the list. Good luck with your choice.

    I had an Enduroguard suit a couple of years ago. I used it all over Europe in 2018. I didn’t rate it for the summer. The venting just isn’t good enough. I roasted. Great when it’s cold and wet but a no no in the heat as it’s too heavy. Went back to a Rallye suit, loads of venting and room in it to have my heated Keis jacket when it’s cold.

    I love my Alpinestars Valparaiso 2 Drystar it has 3 dry pockets, 4 front air vents and 2 rear and airflow is great and not get wet even when open. has 97% of the features the BMW has It comes with. The Drystar comes with 2 other parts drylining and thermal lining as well, its kept me dry in the rain riding to work and from work on a 2-hour commute, cool in the summer and super warm in the winter, you can even wear the waterproof jacket on its only when at your location. The BMW looks nice and will be good to have a long term view on it, I had mine for 2 years now and still looks like new but is 50% cheaper than the BMW not sure it will work twice as well but nice to see how you get with it at the one of the years.I will add this to the list next time I am looking for a replacement at that next time

They were unable to get longer ones in fir me due to new Pacedry suit cooking out soon.

I knew this was going to be a problem so I ordered a size up (56). I get them in and can hardly zip the fly.. ordered and settled on an eu58 and am now able to zip them over my underlayers. As a commuter I needed the suit to accommodate my work pants beneath and the size I've settled on seems to do exactly that. Definitely do not go with your regular pant size as they will be small.
