I picked up a used/unworn 'Stich last year for a smokin' half-price deal. Takes some getting used to - compared to my Vansons & Dainese one-piece, it feels a bit like wearing pajamas. But it's obviously very well-made, and great for all-purpose long-distance use - with the caveat, as Trace said, that it's not great for hot weather (doesn't help that mine's black, like his).
A buddy of mine has the Tourmaster Patton jacket & pants, and he swears by them - all-in-all they seem like better bang-for-the-buck. Nearly as good build quality, equal weather-protection, better looking, and nearly half the price.
