Hi there,
Sorry to be a downer but it's gonna get very wet with spray off your rear wheel & also covered in crud isn't it?
Paul.
No worries ...dont mind constructive criticism
I did feel comforted by the fact the quality connectors are waterproof sealed and they were assembled using dielectric grease.
I don't think it's any more exposed than some Harley /Buell fitment under the oil cooler right at the front catching all the front wheel spray.
And yes, I am a rain dodger if I can avoid it!
Reminds me of a bloke I knew when we were teenagers back in the 80's who spent his life polishing his pristine GS 1000, even stripping his carbs off to polish each one with a cotton bud . It was soooooo clean the dealer offered to buy it back for more than he paid for it.
I have memories of him stopping when a load of us were out to shelter in bus stops if it started raining. Sometimes if it was prolonged rain and his mum would worry if it was getting late, he would push it home rather than get the spray all over the bike...... probably living in a hermetically sealed bubble now.
