Thank you. My dad has used it my whole life on everything from Nortons to BMWs, he's never scratched one either.
As far as rain, I would ride my cruisers or dual sports in the rain but supersports get a bit to squirrely for my liking.

I did 4000 miles over the winter. Did a 350 mile day up to the dragon and back on a day that never got above 40. Cold doesn't bother me.
Hell I'm born and raised at 7k feet in the Rockies. It doesn't even get cold down here.
I guess that was a bit harsh...
I have. Sadly I'm not sponsored and have to pay for my tires and my bike when I mess it up.
I have 3 cars and a diesel truck that do just fine in the rain. No reason to take the bike out in it.
Naw, I can take it. You ride?
Used to, then I had kids. LOL... Now I build.
Bummer. I stepped away for 6 years. Not sure how I went that long without.
I love this 7R. I bought 4 bikes last year and this is the oldest and the only one I've kept. The 7 really is an inedible bike.
Only thing I would rather have is a new R1.
I took a 25 year hiatus from riding after totaling my '80 Suzuki 850 in '82. At the time I had 33,000 miles on the bike. My reasons were marriage, military and kids. After retirement and when the last on was a junior in high school, I figured my job was pretty much done. Got back in the saddle in 2007 and have over 50,000 more on the road.
Just need to get a Hannigan sidecar so I can take the dog.
Yeah I was
about the ZX. They are actually good bikes, by now its hard to find one that hasn't been chromed and stretched out. I used to snicker at them, but if I was going to get another full faired bike, it would probably be an old humble ZX-6E that I could build into a sport tourer. I have no need for rip-your-arms-off speed. 
above_all
after our first kid I bought and rebuilt a Ural hack. But then we got #2. So I sold it. I've bought and sold two aborted bike projects, now I build occasional racebike and breathe handling and speed into select street bikes. Current project is a ridiculous CB250.
Yeah I was
No chrome or stretch here. I am not a fan of either.
