Harleys are so unreliable that they must only be ridden for 30 minutes at a time and need to be cooled off for a period of 2 hours after that. Harleys must also not exceed 75mph for more than 2 minutes and 49 seconds at a time or the engine will suffer a catastrophic melt down. Harleys must not ever come into contact with more than 4 ounces of water at one time or a chemical reaction from the paint and metals used will cause the motorcycle to melt down to a heap of scrap metal.
I think those dumb asnwers cover the dumb questions I've seen this week.
IT will definitely survive, in tact. BUT that is still NOT a good 'thang' for the Ol' Boy.
BUT to help alleviate your 'fear', the one in the sig pic, is 44 this year, seen and sat in MANY a rain drop, STILL tickin'. So grab a rag when it FINALLY stops, wipe it down, wax it, then RIDE THE CHIT OUTTA IT, SON !!!!!!!
Oh yea, CONGRATS on the 'new' shack.
Holly cow, GUMP... I was just thinn-in bout Ya last week.

Thinks the ole yard blower works pretty good to blow off most water then clean and wax as others say, Wouldn't want to leave mine out all winter, so I'd be looking for a dry home somewhere.

Those things are climate controled to keep your HD at the optimal humidity and temp levels. I think there is also a midget that comes out of a pocket somewhere and dusts the bike off for you.
