New Side Vents - Electrics??

[claychaser]

Just had my new side vents installed thanks to BRP - Yeah! I looked down them, and there are a lot of electrical wires hanging there, with connectors and so forth. I assume these will be ok when it rains?
No report on resolution of heat issue, got to ride it a bit more, but so far they really do look nice!!

The loose connectors are items and accessories not installed on your bike they have rubber plugs over the contacts at least the ones on mine does

Relax..!!

factory connections are water tight. Custom, diy types maybe not so much depending on who does it...:thumbup:

No connection I have seen on the my Spyder is waterproof. With out pictures. I don't know what your looking at. From ridding off road for a number of years and seeing others in the wet and getting water in their wires and getting stuck. There are products that you can spray on the connections and the wiring to help keep the water out, some of those sprays can cause more problems than they help. I rode my 2011 RS-S SE5 in heavy rain and had no problems. That's IMHO.

I rode my 2011 RS-S SE5 in heavy rain and had no problems, yet . That's IMHO.
