Did you get the square needle there in the military? Maybe you got kicked there once, and the molecules have lined up and draw the ferrous molecules to said left nut or may you got a leaky left seat...

Welp - my right nut hangs lower than my left - yet, my left nut gets wet too - like you described. I'm pretty sure its positioning. You may not think so - but the suttle difference would do it. You shift with your left foot. Sure - you brake w/the right - but you shift far more - and when you do - you make slight leg extensions, thereby opening up your left nut to precipitation exposure.

Rubber pants are the solution.

I gave my left nut for all of my chrome add-ons so it's not an issue for me.

Do you ride left to right or right to left?
ORIGINAL: PaOutlaw

Would someone please explain the wind dynamics of Harley's in general?? Here's my dilema........back in the day,I rode a '77 FXS. Come rain or shine I rode. When it did rain......I got wet "PERIOD". What annoyed me was the fact that the left side of my.......scrotal area took the brunt of said wetness.
Here I be.........20 some odd years later. Shining the seat of my Ultra with my now fatter ***.........enjoying the hell out of it by the way. When it rains???? My left nut STILL get's "WET"!!!!!! WTF is up with the winds decision that it'll be said left nut??
