Riding in the rain durring the day doesn't bother me. But I never want to do it again at night !!! I got caught in the worst rain strom this fall around here. The problem I had is no where to pull over, with out the risk of getting hit by a car. So I decided to just travel allot slower allong the side of the road. I had to keep my visor up, and i just followed the white line all the way home.

 

Uhh, huhu wet

Naw, I dont mind ridin in the rain as long as the temperature is around 80 or so. Being wet and cold at 60+mph is a joke!

 

I crack my visor a little when its raining and my visor keeps fogging.

I ride in the rain alot, being my bike is my only transportation right now. I check the weather everyday and pack stuff that will keep me dry when needed, luckly my fairings do a good job keeping my legs dry.

 

I dont really mind rain, as long as its not liek a freaking storm lol

 

I could care less about the rain. I live in Washington. If you are going to ride a bike here, you are going to get wet. Just have to have the right gear and be extra alert for other people. For some reason, they cant see a bright red bike with a loud exhaust bright headlights, even in the dry.

 

I hate riding in the rain. I try my best to never do it, thou it does happen from time to time.

I got stuck in a lightning storm this past summer that killed a guy at the beach in CT, which was where I left from. That was the only day that I ever started to think that I may not make it home. Scary...

 

havent ridden when it was actually raining yet, i usully just wait for it to stop. Ridden on soaked roads many times, like everyone said larger following distances and dampen all your control movements. Never really had a problem as far as traction goes, then again i take it super easy in the rain

 

I've ridden in a lot of rain... you get used to it.

Traction is lower, but with good tires and common sense you'll be fine. Track take-offs are absolutely useless in the rain, but a fresh set of street tires are going to hold just fine.

I've had 12 hour days in the rain, and I'm still here

 

I don't ride in the rain ordarkunless its absolutely necessary.

 

are some of you guys for real? never in the rain? wow.....where's the dedication?
