If your tyres are in reasonable nick, you ride smooth and you are aware of road surface conditions you should not have any problems. Apart from getting wet.
Riding in the rain is fun!! So stop being a sookie bubba and just do it!
No body move... I dropped my brain

Smooth & steady my friend & you will have no problems. Brake & accelerate smoothly & look well ahead. You will be harder to see so keep your light on & make sure you are in space on the road. Watch out for any muck, gravel, diesel that has been washed onto the road. Keep a safe following distance because cars can stop much quicker than you in the rain. Don't lean on wet manhole covers, road markings, shiny overbanding etc. Just ride well, you will be fine & very awake!
Ahhh....Opps....
Ride to the conditions...

Like everyone says, riding in the rain is easy. Dont do anything too suddenly, ie, braking, accelerating, leaning etc. You will have no problems anyway cause I bet that you're just going to ride up SH1.
If you cant handle a bit of water I am not sure that you can survive Welly's wind!!

Just keep turning your head from left to right. The wind blows the screen clear... plus you get a better look about. No hard braking ...let the engine do that for you. Avoid white lines ... they are slippery.

Oh FFS.
Don't do it, you'll melt.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

This.
Once, I decided that my destination was more important than the risks involved.
I left one of my jacket vents open, and almost crashed when my right shoulder started to melt. It was horrible, had to book into ICU and everything for a re-structure.
Some people just can't seem to comprehend that they do not have the right to be unoffended in their lives.

I rode in the rain once... and then I did it again a bit later on too.
If it's a concern then take it slow, leave some space around you and you'll be sweet.

You'll be fine, as long as you have fresh brake fluid and you're chain isn't too tight.
