I got caught in the rain late at night a couple of weeks ago and it sits where I parked it when I got home. I'll clean it up when weather permits me to ride again, and I'll bet it'll work just fine.

Yep! I'm pretty sure you voided the warranty by letting it sit in the rain, tough luck Bro

Hopefully I'll get about half of that done after I retire. Enjoy the trip.

Which translates: "Hi, I'm an upscale yuppy in mid life crisis that paid $23k for an awesome and completely tricked out Harley so I could impress my friends in the firm. I've ridden the bike 5 times bar hopping and have scared myself sensless each time. I'm riding on a learners permit because I don't think I can pass the test which is totally bogus anyway. The bike has had the 500 mile service, done at 103 miles because someone told me it would be a good idea to change the oil once in 5 years."

At least that's how I read those ads.
and the small print reads.....Also, Like new Harley Leather jacket and chaps. Worn once. Harley boots with no scuff marks.

This is the best post I've seen in months. Really know how to make a guy smile, don't you. Ride safe, often, and even in the rain if you have to. The bike is made to get a little wet once in a while, how else you wash it off! Love it!!
