Hm no way you gonna cross mali and burkina in may with a jacket, at least for me it was too hot. I never had problems with dehydration and sunburn, maybe because im half african or yiu juste get used to it after a few months....
I also dont have money to buy new bike clothes. But im gonna keep my trouser due the weather is not that hot anymore....
And yes befor i had no protection, everthing was in the bike clothes. So yes falling or crashing not allowd. But also kept me driving more savely, most of time....

Gets to 40s in the Karoo. My textiles fine. I wear jacket trousers and off road boots. I never get too hot. It could be that I am more used to the heat, I don't know. Heat doesn't bother me. In a Tshirt I would burn in an hour. I just burn now if there is a gap between my gloves and jacket, or my face where not covered by a helmet. Anywhere white skin is exposed it quickly goes to red and its sore! European and American below zero temperatures and snow and ice, No thanks. You can keep it
There is a reason why people in hot regions cover up. For one it reduces dehydration.
I think your kit being partly leather was the problem. I don't know the brand. Leather is very hot.
