Rainsuits don't take much room, pack it anyway.
Any time I go a distance I pack the rainsuit just in case, better to have it and not need it....

Thomas, a rainsuit and a wetsuit are different things.
a rainsuit keeps you dry
wetsuit makes you look more like a gimp.
i have an 850 so i use a rainsuit.
dandy rides a 900, hence the wetsuit comment
Bring out the gimp!
