Riding Gear in Tall sizes

About a year ago I bought the BMW Streetguard jacket and pants for my fall/winter gear from a BMW dealer in the UK; BMW Bohling. They were running a phenomenal sale and even with shipping it was about 480.00 for the set. I'm 6'-4"+ish, 250lb and they had tall sizes that fit perfectly. The jacket and pants are the best quality gear I've ever owned.
 
Thanks again for all the input, folks.
I ordered a new Aerostich Roadcrafter Classic due to using one since 2006 and am used to the quick on/off feature. Putting on my vented jacket and pants seems like a PITA compared to the quick "step in and zip two zippers" for the Aerostich. The Roadcrafter has done a great job of keeping me dry (we'll forget that seven hour slog through rain/storm/deluge on I-81 from Pennsylvania a few years back; I think the inside of cars got wet in that one), warm with a fleece and heated jacket, cool in hot weather with ice in freezer bags in the pockets and protected me in a get off and slide down the highway with only a few scuffs to the jacket and pants. With Aerostich having an overstock sale I got matching jacket and pants for under a grand and just could not pass that up.
Thanks again Harry for the sizing tip. I got the 44L top and bottom and it fits well.
