I left Cape Cod last Friday and returned yesterday from a 2700 mile trip around the block. Down 95 to Bracey VA. then to Jacksonville NC. then west to Inman SC. All that was pretty dry. A few showers but not bad. Once I left SC. I was pretty much in rain. Some hard rain at times but I felt safe on the Wing. Its a good rain bike if there is one. My ass and back are sore while riding but after a 400 mile day your not tired. You don't fight the bike. It goes where you want it to go. So it rained but I would do it again. Its part of why we ride.

Good to hear. We are about to head north next weekend and with all the rain up there this spring I'm betting on a wet ride for a day or two. Glad you had a good one.

Sounds like a great trip. Hopefully in a little less than a month I'll be headed to Colorado and New Mexico for my first long trip on the Wing.

Congrats on the long ride. My first one was also 2700 miles, (MMDCC) to New Mexico and Colorado, only the wife got wet,,, heh heh, long story

Congrats on the first Ride, Rain is part of the total experience, I always think it will blow over and it rarely does, more times than not, I don't put my rain suit on until it pours.

Just don't stop and all is well
