Well, it was yesterday rather than today, but I used the Fazer 1000 to get to work again - 200 mile round trip, mostly down and back up the Fosse Way.
Got absolutely pissed on by torrential rain from Melksham to Bourton on the Water on the way home (over an hour of constant rain). Bike was faultless, great protection with the fairing lowers, waterproofs were "waterproof" and in a perverse way I really, really enjoyed the ride.
Still prefer riding in the sun, but my first really wet journey of the year was fun as well.
