The Spectra mirror coating on the visor is horrible. It scratches very very easily and even a finger nail can remove the mirror coating. every time I clean on bug debris off the visor more and more of the mirror coating comes off and you can tell where the bugs hit the visor based on the removed coating. The standard dark smoke tint blocks the same amount of sun, is cheaper, and much more durable. I wish I went with he standard dark smoke visor from the beginning.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Bought the Dainese Racing Jacket and I couldn't be happier. I am 6'4" 205lbs and bought the 56 and it fits me very well. The sleeves could be an inch longer in the arms but this jacket does fit very well around the torso. The 56 gives me enough room to put a mid layer on and is still comfortable when just wearing a t-shirt. I could have gotten a 54 and had a more tight race fit.
The leather and quality feels very good. The style is definitely some of the best I've ever seen. The armor is in the right place and feels very protective and comfortable.
I really love this jacket.
Cons:
This jacket has little venting so its going to be very hot in the summer. The collar is alittle uncomfortable when its snapped close, I just ride with the collar un-snapped.
Yes, I recommend this product.

This jacket is the most comfortable motorcycle jacket I have ever put on. It also looks very very stylish. It's very easy to move around in. The Armour fits me perfectly and feels very protective. It's a lot of money to spend on a jacket but it is a very high quality piece.
I am 6'4" 210lbs, decently long arms and torso and this jacket fits me great, I do wish I had an inch to a 1/2 in the the arms.
Pros Comfortable, Fashionable
Yes, I recommend this product.

Dainese New Drake Air Textile Pants Drake pants will surely interest anyone who loves to ride his or her bike especially in the warmer months without wearing a suit or leather pants in order to obtain the protection required. These previously contrasting needs have now been perfectly reconciled by Drake fabric pants. Ample air vents in fretted fabric with closing on the thighs permit fresh air to enter during riding for cooling relief on even the hottest days. When temperatures begin to drop, the air vents can be closed. Safety is guaranteed by removable composite protections in the knee and shins, while extra-strength Cordura 750 fabric offers protection in case of fall. The elastic inserts in the knee optimise the wearability of the article, which is equally suited to metropolitan motorcycle use. Features Removable composite protectors. Cordura fabric 750. Suretta fabric. Perforated fabric. Insert in elasticated fabric. Soft inserts. Calf zip. Jacket-trousers fastening system. Adjustable waist. Sanityzed lining.
 

Do they make these pants in "tall" sizes?

I've noticed in some of the comments that these pants are a bit short. Which means they'd look like capri pants on my tall, thin frame. Will tall sizes become available on these pants?
unfortunately Dainese doesn't ever offer much in terms of "Tall" options on any of there pants. Check out the Rev'it! rotor pants. They are very similar and the Rotors have tall sizes available

How water resistant is it? Is there a kit available to make it water proof? I live in Oregon so it's a factor.

This kit is water resistant. Rain and splashing or dropping this camera in water won't hurt it at all. You'll only be in trouble if you take this camera fully underwater for an extended period of time. There is a rubber boot you can buy to cover the battery cover and it will help extend the water resistance of the camera but it wont make it 100 percent waterproof.

---Great Camera and very easy to use
