not quiet true you get mother dearest to get some blue waterproof material and stitch a patch in your waterproof 1 piece suit leg (bloody harley davidson exhaust)
Anyway, ive had a few 1 piece and 2 piece suits and as GULG says 2 piece far easier to get on and off, plus when your off the bike you can still use the rain coat if tourer and want to he out for dinner etc.
Currently i use a karimor hiking water proof jacket as i find it fits fine, drys within 30min-1hr and its what i use for all my old hiking trips and i never got wet.
Trousers ive got the newer version hein gericke trousers which although fag paper thin and you think you might rip them have never had any problems in the last 6 months of ownership and quiet alot of rides in the wet, 100% water proof, rain drops fly off them as if they where covered in pig fat!!! I think the hein gericke jacket is also made the same and they do do a 1 piece suit too.
