...wet? Do the newer HD's run when they get wet?
What changes did they make?
Its the same engine, same ignition system, did they make the coils and plug wires tighter and waterproof?
The HD Guys I know pull under a bridge, or stop at a bar when it starts rainning, then they go back out riding after the rain stops.
 
Ummmm....when is the last time you rode? The 1910s? I have never had a hard time riding a Harley in the rain. If you have had problems riding in the rain I would be willing to wager that the problems stemmed from the person maintaining the bike, not the bike itself.

The Harley guys you know are worried about getting their vaginas wet, not stalling the bike.
 
Depends on what components they used to build the bike. With clear lacquer or hair spray I can run most engines under water for a brief time. The water shorts the coil, protect the coil, and the wire - it runs.
 
Why go this far, it's easy enough to pick on hardlys without making anything up. If you just stick to the truth you'll get under their skin even further.
