I wouldn't wear this over my current hot weather motorcycle gear. I rarely ride over 102F/38C so maybe those in hotter conditions will feel differently.
* Putting on motorcycle gear already takes a significant amount of time, I am always looking for ways to spend less time putting on gear not more time.
* While on a motorcycle you have excellent access to wind, and good summer gear will use that to its full advantage.
* This doesn't cover the parts of the body that gain the most heat in the summer. The head inside the helmet and the knees near the engine are the hottest locations.
* I have bad luck using items not designed for motorcycle riding while riding a motorcycle. Even items designed for riding a motorcycle such as boots can show significant wear quickly. It's a special use case with high forces.

The use case that jumps out at me is people that have to wear heavy protective clothing outside in hot weather. Like motorcycle gear.

I tend to be a bit overweight and also always hot, but I'd instantly get one for motorcycle gear.
