RE: not an all weather bike

I agree with the original post. I love my SV more than anything (and I shouldn´t be surprised that it outrates the 99 ducati 750 SS that I´m buying tomorrow in every category on this site) but in heavy rain the front cylinder cuts out unless you fill the plug cavity with dialectric grease or extend the front fender. My ride through an ice-storm over the big-horns in eastern wyoming got mighty interesting up in the mountains with no power to climb. we survived though, and I love the bike that much more for it.
