I would just buy a good quality light waterproof jacket and trousers and wear them over the top of your Tourag gear.
I would look at Gortex army jacket and trousers but I have only seen these in camoflage,they are very good and water proof. You can normally buy them from auto jumbles or the BMF type shows for about £15 to £20 each.
Also look out for post office waterproof trouser a bit like gortex very good again secound hand but unused about £20.( Ask your postman if he has any spare)
You can also get HiViz second hand waterproof jackets they are ex police jackets with the police badge taken off they some times still have blue and white cheques at the bottom I take this off as they look to much like police jacket. I think when the police use them they are only aloud to be washed six times as they begin to fade but are still perfectly ok for you and I.
There are different types of police hiviz the best ones are slightly thicker and the zip goes high up your neck these are used by the motorcycle police. the other type have a big wide neck not good for motorcycle use and a bit thinner.
I have spent alot of money on waterproof motorcycle gear and none of it is waterproof after 12 months.
Yellow oil skins not pretty and will make you sweat but fully waterproof when worn over other gear.
