Anyone had any problems riding in heavy rain?

I don't mind riding in the rain, it sharpens the senses and makes me really focus my mind. I just don't know how you managed to see well enough ahead in those conditions, I always seem to have my left hand wiping my visor ( I must fit a windscreen wiper or does that Rainex stuff really work)
 
get rid of that light weight bike and get and 1150 aqua planing isn't an issue the shear weight of the bike plus tosser over comes that:augie

Ah, but you mentioned it happened when you overtook, so we know there was at least one other vehicle. :D
 
Yeah aquaplaning, its not a nice experience. When it happen's i remind myself of trying to balance my body midair & don't touch the throttle up or down.

Greasy roads are my nightmare on my f8gs.
