You need something there - that rain will get into everywhere.
Last winter we had a rain storm that I rode home in which was followed by a massive cold front that night.
Water go into the throttle grip and froze. Next morning I could roll on the throttle - but it wouldn't return to idle automatically. So every time I wanted to slow down I had to manually roll the throttle back.
After I got back home I had to get a hairdryer out and defrost the thing.
