Women’s Full Speed II Waterproof Rain Jacket – 98116-23VW

The Women’s Full Speed II Waterproof Rain Jacket (98116-23VW) is a seam-sealed nylon motorcycle rain jacket with a packable hood, reflective trim, and a rain gutter zipper placket, designed to fit over riding gear and pack down small enough to carry on the bike.

Quick Facts

Rain Gear Built to Actually Keep Up With a Ride

Most rain shells are designed to be worn on their own, which makes them awkward the moment you try to pull one on over a jacket, gloves, and a helmet already in place. The Women’s Full Speed II Waterproof Rain Jacket (98116-23VW) is built specifically to solve that problem. It is cut generously to layer over existing riding gear, seam-sealed to keep water out at speed, and finished with a hood that is sized to work with a helmet rather than against it.

This is a jacket meant to live in a saddlebag or tail pack until the sky opens up, then go on fast, do its job at highway speed in real rain, and pack back down small enough that carrying it is never an inconvenience.

Lightweight Nylon With Real Waterproofing

The shell uses a lightweight nylon that is fully lined for a smoother, more breathable feel against riding gear underneath. Waterproofing comes from a fully seam-sealed build, with a rain gutter built into the main zipper and a storm flap placket layered over it, the two features working together to stop water from tracking in through the stitching and the zipper line, which are the two most common failure points on cheaper rain shells.

Independent gear reviewers such as RevZilla and Motorcyclist Online regularly point out that seam sealing and a properly gutted zipper matter more for real-world dryness than fabric weight alone, since most leaks in motorcycle rain gear happen at seams and closures rather than through the fabric itself.

Visibility Matters When the Weather Turns

Rain and low light are exactly when a rider is hardest to see, which is why this jacket adds high-visibility contrast piecing and reflective trim rather than treating visibility as an afterthought. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s motorcycle safety guidance and the Motorcycle Safety Foundation both list conspicuity, being seen by other drivers, as one of the most effective low-cost ways to reduce risk, especially in reduced-visibility conditions like rain and dusk.

Built to Fit Over Your Existing Gear

• Fully seam-sealed construction to block water at the stitch lines
• Rain gutter at the main zipper paired with a storm flap placket for a double layer of protection at the closure
• Helmet-friendly hood that packs away into the collar when not in use
• Generous over-gear fit designed to layer on top of a riding jacket rather than replace it
• Ample dry pocket space to keep a phone, wallet, or gloves protected from the weather
• Packs into its own interior zip pocket, compressing down to a size that is easy to store in a saddlebag, tank bag, or under a seat

Pair It With the Matching Rain Pants

For full wet-weather coverage, this jacket is designed to be paired with the companion Full Speed II Waterproof Rain Pants (98117-23VW), sold separately so riders can size the jacket and pants independently rather than being locked into a matched suit sizing.

Who This Jacket Is For

It suits a rider who commutes or tours regardless of forecast, wants a rain layer that goes on quickly over an existing jacket rather than replacing it, and would rather carry a compact packable shell than get caught out without one. It is not meant to be worn on its own as a standalone riding jacket, it is built specifically as an over-layer for wet conditions.

How does the jacket actually keep water out at the seams and zipper? It uses a fully seam-sealed construction combined with a rain gutter at the main zipper and a storm flap placket, which together block the two most common leak points on rain gear.

Does the rain jacket include a hood, and will it fit over a helmet? Yes, it has a helmet-friendly hood that packs away into the collar when it is not needed.

How small does the rain jacket pack down for storage? The entire jacket packs into its own interior zipper pocket, making it compact enough to carry in a saddlebag, tank bag, or under a seat.

Do the rain pants come included with the rain jacket? No, the Full Speed II Waterproof Rain Pants are sold separately so the jacket and pants can each be sized correctly on their own.
