Cafe Rocket III

LOOKS like someone ruined a perfectly good motorcycle
 
Will stand corrected but I think the batteries in front of the back wheel down low? Riding in the rain may be a bad experience also looking at tire vs guard but it probably never rains in WA?

My Intruder has a bottom mount battery, right in front of the the rear tire. The battery box has a little plastic lid, that keeps the heavy rain out. Clean the top of the battery every once and a while and it's OK.
 
Yea but I bet it's loud ?

FYI - I once ran mine right off the OEM header and was very surprised that it was NOT very loud!
I put several different cans on the end and it quickly became unbearable!
 

With the rain thing, was thinking more of it spraying up behind me and down the back of my neck rather than battery protection.

Why is that ?
Why would the cans make it louder ? This is really interesting !
