EXACTLY!!!! WTF?


ORIGINAL: oldfartjc

The only problem is that even though the condensation drys out in the sun it will always leave some residue behind from the water and eventually will look cloudy. I can't understand why they can't seal these units, especially considering the price we pay for these bikes.

Hmmmmm...condensation in your Speedo? Personally, I don't wear Speedos, but if I did, I wouldn't want any condensation!

I washed my RK Classic this past weekend and yup, condensation in the fuel gauge... I'm not sure if it is related, however when I stopped for gas yesterday it took 4.68 gallons and the fuel low light had not illuminated.

Never trust the accuracy of the gauge or the low light.

Fact, mine did the same thing on my Lowrider, the stealer replaced it for me. It's good now. Speedo does it but they did tell me the old, put it in the sun line! Tim
