Rain riding

[John]

Ok, well now its pretty wet here, probably auckland and such to ...

But in general who finds riding in the rain a fucken blast?

I love it, I love it so much infact that I hope it rains all the time I REALLY love it when you are riding around town and their are alot of spectators, and lots of boyricers...

Something about blasting off on the green and fishtailing all the way, and drifting around corners, just turns me on - love it when everyone stops to watch to.

Who else loves playing silly bugger in the wet?

what the hell? explain?

your tyre has limited grip

For that problem, I found that good stoppies increase front tyre grip on the road, and wheelies increase rear tyre grip.....if executed properly, of course.....

What I hate the most is wet crootch.....krotch....chrotch.....whatever....

Incontinent pants mate. Works a treat. Plus there's an added bonus...

Will be giving up on the cage and the misses can use it. Will be generally riding a TT350 about and do look forward to the rainy stuff although I still need to get some good wet weather gear.

i enjoy rain riding on the open road more than around town...simply due to the fact theres usually less traffic and definatly less paint at critical slowing points. was thundering yesterday....broadband crashed so i kitted up and took off for a few hours. jeans were soaked before i got outta town, but dry by the time i got back! only thing i disliked was the trucks....massive rooster tails of water coming out the sides. but whatever....all part of the ride! just wipe the visor/speedo so you can see and make sure you keep to a decent speed and keep on riding.
