 Hey Richard,

I've run a K&N filter exposed on my motorcycle, and have been caught out in
the rain many, many times over the years, especially when it was my only
transportation. I've never run into a problem, the filters will dry out.

6 Pack,

 While considering relocating the air filter up past the radiator
shroud, I
got to considering rain  will pass the grille and soak the filter.

  Hopefully this will be few and far between. What have others done when
relocating the filter to this location and is it unnecessary to worry
about it
getting wet?
  The filter getting water logged isn't good, right.(?) Should I
fabricate a
shield for the front of it, and what about the shield limiting airflow?
Just a
note,Richard Good's has a shield.

  Maybe I should think about something else, but it's too cold to work
on the
car.
