Is there a problem driving a naked uncovered VFR800 ?

But what if the dude wants to have one of those 175mph VFRs we keep hearing aboot? IMO, the plastic helps at least some...

 

my only concern is that the fairings direct air through the radiators on the side of the bike and without them they may get heatsoaked.

 

Has someone experienced riding the bike with no issues with wet connectors ?

I Guess low resistance of wet connectors Causes current to flow in the circuits (short circuit).

( Impedance/resistance of tap water is almost 0 Ohm
Distilled water is less than 25 Ohm
Rain in a city polluted contaminated air... and other staff making ate water good conductor is in this range 0-25 Ohm.

 

Thanks, but this does not seem to be a good idea : https://youtu.be/yuKAmaIkA-U.

Although it will keep the water away, prevent short circuit of a wet terminal connectors.

- With side cowl off riding temperatures are just perfect !!! ( around 65 mph (6 gear : around 5000 RPM) on a 30-32 deg celsius day temps are less than 90 dec celsius, on the evening its 84 deg celsius )
- On side stand it couls down in 60 sec 104->94 degs... (before with another coolant and cowls on it took more than 2 minutes).

So air flow seems O.K.
