Well,
It's been a wet Memorial Day weekend for Philadelphia region.
I cleaned the bike all weekend to get a few hours of riding in just this afternoon..

Saturday was a wet one, after cleaning the bike for an hour, I went out and rode in the rain for two hours.. then it's back in the garage to clean it all over.

I think I've had enough practice riding int he rain this weekend.
close to 1600 miles in three days, I think more than 600 were in the rain.

Bike looks great. Hope you had a great ride.

I stuffed all the wet clothes into the GIVI case and the rear luggage.. I think they have gorwn moldy by the end of the weekend.. washer and dryer have been working none stop since last night.
The bike is a standard 02 cobalt blue, with a pearl white front fairing and some SOLAS reflective tape allover it. After nightfall, the bike is really visible when light shines on it. The bike does get more attention than it used to while in stock outfit.

Been there and done that. Nice looking bike. Last November I did about 1500 miles of rain over 2 days, it get's demoralizing after a while. I don't mind the rain so much on the slab, but the trucks really get on my nerves :)
