We in Vancouver, BC, are used to ride in the rain. My rain gears are permanently stored in the left side hard case. My riding glove and boots are water proof. I need them because the ST1300 handles so well in the rain, we just keep on riding rain or shine. I found the PR4GT tire matches up amazingly well for the ST in wet or dry condition.
In heavy rain, you can adjust the ST electric windshield to a height that directs the wind to blow clear your helmet visor. The fairing give you plenty of wind and moderate rain protection.
