I agree with Chy, these bikes are supposed to be able to take some weather. I've heard of some people using a leaf blower to get them dry, usually I just take a ride to blow off excess water. I've never had a problems starting after a wash. I think the manual actually suggests putting plastic on the ends of the mufflers and around the electrics to keep things dry when washing.
