I think I remember reading in the manual that any time you ride in wet weather, you should check your air filter for contamination. Does anyone actually go so far to do this - pulling the fuel tank every time they ride in the rain to look at the air filter? I'm preparing myself to ride in the rain as needed this season, but really can't imagine going through all that trouble each time. I know a lot of folks ride their bikes to work, rain or shine.
If it is this much of a concern with the factory paper filter, I may install a K&N drop-in, but am not sure if that will make the motor run lean.
