Commute in leather jacket (Shift) and kevlar jeans with gauntlets and full height alpinestars boots.
It's been around 35 deg C here lately and that's still all fine as long as you're moving.
My commute is only 20mins to half an hour but it's not totally sweltering in there.
Jacket is non perforated but has a removable liner that i've obviously removed for summer.
I find my jeans actually feel hotter, probably the knee and hip pads and the kevlar lining meaning they do zero breathing.
Got a single piece Berik suit for track days or for when i go 2 up (my GF wears my leather jacket etc then) and i find it quite comfy on the Fazer.
I have found with single piece suits that if you are slightly short and quite skinny (5'10" and 69kg) you can get heaps that fit you well, if you're tall and skinny like my mates...better off going for 2 piece cos most of the tall suits are wide as well and are like sails on them.
