Okay, I'm getting a little anxious. Are these things dangerous to drive on wet roads? What should you do if you're caught in a sudden rain storm?
I've gotten caught in several storms while on the sling. On the way to Maggie Valley last year, I rode for about 6 hours in rain, some very heavy, some not.
These things will hydro really quickly, just so light. The key is to slow way down. Cars/trucks will be passing you. In heavy rain, I was going 40. Light rain, I was running 55 - 60 with no issues.
Good rain suit, pay attention, slow down, and you will be fine.
