It isn't advisable to drive them in the rain; let alone expose them to 8+ hours of rain. You should consider carrying a tarp/bicycle cover with you. You should also consider making some kind a ferring to encase the motor. This can prevent water getting inside of your carburetor through the air intake. As well as keeping water off your spark plug coil.
oh thats a beautiful bike, but the larger concern would be while riding, ive been told there shouldnt be any issue with the air intake and filter getting wet "probably"
Exposed air filters
The other problem I see with the small 4 strokes is moisture buildup on the flywheel eventually causing ignition issues. In a heavy rain storm water will get to the flywheel.Exposed air filters
Rain will get the air filter wet and water will get into the intake causing loss of power or stall the engine
Motorcycles use a Rain Sock it prevents water from getting the air filter wet
I'm sure if you search Motorcycle Rain Socks you'll find one that will fit the air filter on your Motorbike
I don't ride my Motorbike in the rain or go riding if I think it's gonna rain
But with my Harley I sometimes get caught in the rain
Here's a pic of the Rain Sock for my Harley air filter, I'll put it on if it starts raining, It keeps the air filter from getting wet
