Occasionally, you will find one that will throw-a-fit in a hard rain, but it's from the handlebar switches getting soaked. As soon as they dry out...every thing goes back to normal.

Gauges sometime get condensation , but not enough to be a problem, All electrical works fine.
I've been thru some pretty tough downpours and all day rain here in Georgia..somtimes travel and in rain for 2-3 days
I don't care how much you pay for a rainsuit..your gonna get wet

No problems except cleaning the bike back up

I ride my Ultra in the rain quite a bit (Indiana weather changes frequently, so occassionally get caught). Never had a problem with my radio.

I took my 2010 Limited in for the 1000 mile service the other day. They washed the bike after the service and the radio quit working on the way home. As I started to ride it away i saw water coming out around the radio. The radio was cutting in and out and then just completely went out and will not turn on. They said to wait a day or two to see if it would work after it dried it out. If not they would replace the radio. It still isn't working so they'll be replacing it. Tech guy said they have frequent problems with radios and have had to replace many of them.
