Thought I'd put up a few words as I've purchased the Pro Rallye 3 suit from BMW yesterday.
I had the Rallye 2, but found it uncomfortable when worn with the liners attached in the trousers. (Didn't work this out for some time as was messing about with different seats).
I even looked into having the Gortex liner adjusted, but it was too much hassle and too expensive. Only really using my bike in the summer months, I just put it down to a costly life experience.
The Rallye3 has a flexible system in place to address this issue.
Both Gortex liners enjoy this new update.
The suit when worn with the liners attached feels less restrictive than it's predecessor, and lighter too.
The velcro collar is longer on the jacket and therefore able to join its counterpart even when worn with a buffy or the like.
The suit stands out less, (I think), looks more run of the mill textile suits.
The trouser Gortex liners are longer, and cover more of your boots, (great if they're not waterproof).
The back protector covers a larger portion of your back. Gone is the additional liner in the jacket to house the shoulder/elbow protectors. This is incorporated into the main jacket.
I've yet to use it, (as it's raining outside), but will add an update as when.
Cheers
