Someone in my family shot water directly at mine...no problems here!

I've ridden in some serious rain for about an hour...no problems...I think you're safe.

I don't have a radio, but I would think that the washing would cause more of a problem than the rain would.

 

Rain shouldn't be a problem at all. These bikes were made to ride in all kinds of weather. I have ridden mine in some pretty good rain since I've had it, as well as one wet, severe show storm, and have had no problems.

This is my first bike with a radio, but I have friends that have had them, and ridden in the rain for days at a time when we were on long trips.

Regards,

Bill

 

On my '05 I've noticed that when I wash it if I'm not real carfull around the radio the digital display "fogs" up a little. Now I don't spray a jet at it, but I do quicly spray the inside front (windshield, etc...) with a light spray to get it lightly wet and lightly rinse her off with the Mr. Clean final rinse setting. Within an hour or so the "fog" seems to evaporate. Rain wouldn't be hitting it perpendicular, but I do hold the hose so the water is pointing down. All is still working fine though.

I had a 99 EG Classic that went through many storms. Never had a problem with the stereo.
