RST Pro Adventure, have it more than a year now, used in all weather conditions and hasn't let me down.

Had the Lindstrand quattra jacket and matching trousers for a couple of years and very happy with them. The water proof lining is separate which means:
+ve in hot weather you get VERY good venting. 30 - 35 degrees in Spain last year off road and stayed reasonably cool.
-ve if out and about and it rains it takes a while to get dry (in fact I take over trousers, but the jacket liner I just put on the liner and don't zip it in, under my jacket).
Waterproof liner is 100% water proof in my experience.
Venting is excellent with chest/back and thigh vents.
Crash protection - only fallen off, off-road so not a real test but all OK. My impression is the armour is as good as any out there.
Very comfortable for touring/standing off road.
Very happy with it and seems to be standing up to off road abuse!
Prices seem to have gone up a fair bit since I brought mine (for under £500).
I have the tan jacket and black trousers. IMHO tan trousers with the tan jacket looks a bit, well, "wannabe".
I don't have any good, close up photos of it but the black lines running down the jacket below are the wide vents that you can open.
cheers

Well
I've gone and purchased the adventure jacket and pants. Got a great deal at £350 all in. The quality feels as good as my old twat suit but for half the cost.
Now I just need a pissy wet day to try it out. Won't have to wait long me thinks
