Haven't got to ride, scattered storms.

It seems to be working, at least in the garage.

Rode to work Friday and all seems fine.

I did hook it back up to the tender before the ride, so maybe it is a battery issue.

If it was a weak battery the bike wouldn't start.

My thoughts, as well. I'm going to see how it goes from here.

I've got to do a lot of riding lately and all seems well. But, I finally got a chance to ride to work (been many days with rain in the forecast) and it did it again. Has me thinking that it has to do with the auto dimming feature, as it is dark when I ride to work. This time though, the display came back on, after a few miles (and it seems I hit a bump, at the same time) and it has been functioning properly since.

Your auto dimming feature is controlled through a sensor in your speedometer face.

Cool, thanks for the info.

I guess we will see if the issue arises again. I started the bike in the garage last night, in the dark and it was all good. Going out here in a little while and it will be dark when we head home. See what happens.

1.21.0.4 CVO.

It worked properly again, on the ride home Saturday after dark. Not really sure what to think anymore.
