After years of being a fair weather rider, I decided to take the plunge (no pun intended), and headed out in the drizzle and mist this morning. I know many of you are thinking - no big deal - but, it was a great first for me...

ps. after only 250 miles on my new R12R, and coming off an F800ST, I couldn't be happier!

Riding in heavy rain is much easier than riding in drizzle and mist. As long as you have 100% waterproof gear on riding in rain improves your skills because moves have to be smooth and precise. And recently we've all been getting plenty of practise.

As grandma used to say, don't forget to wear protection. (Don't worry. It's safe for work.)

The R12 is exceptional n the rain. I've ridden Chicago highways in pouring rain and the bike is rock stable. Get a FroggToggs ultra lightweight rainsuit and you are good to go.
