I've been caught in the rain once on my N, was the 30 mile ride back from San Antonio. I didn't have my fender on, but like others have said it wouldn't have done much to keep me dry. I did have to brush my teeth when I got home though, all that spray came right up to my face.[:'(]

 

Worse than getting wet is the fact that your goggles need windshield wipers

 

Does anyone know what kind of pipes Elvis Nixon has on that ride?

 

They look like Nitemarez to me... http://www.pipedreamz.biz/pipez_nitemarez.html

Supertrapp actually makes a similar set too that looks very good: http://www.supertrapp.com/product_se...at.asp?CatID=4

 

Yep, joakim has it right. they are Pipedreamz Nitemarez. I've been really happy with the performance and sound of them. Just make sure you get the torque cones. I also have the baffles in them for added backpressure and they're still plenty loud...

Boxboy, I replied to your email.

 

There's snow and ice on the ground here so no ridin for me. I wish it was just rainin then I'd be ridin with a big grin on my mug. I didn't like the rain at first but now that I'm used to it bring it on. I'll even take the wind, just no snow and ice.

 

I've been stuck in the rain a few times and try to avoid it if possible. The funny thing is when it does happen I always have the biggest grin on my face when I get home. I guess you try to avoid adversity whenever possible but when you overcome adversity you seem the happiest.

 

Unless you get caught in the rain why ride in it at all?
