Title: Speedometer Condensation
Post by: beRto on October 08, 2007, 08:19:23 PM
Hi,

Went for a ride today  :)  All went well, except that I noticed that after a few minutes some condensation developed on the inside glass of my speedometer.

Has this happened to anyone else?  Is there a solution?

thanks.

Yes, and yes.

Take the speedometer off the bike... two way to do this... You can try putting windex in through the back of the bucket and let it slosh around on the glass and then tip it up to drain it out ( never tried that myself). Might work ok tho....

The other way....

Carefully open the glass bezel up from the back with a flat screwdriver...clean the glass and put it back together. It's tedious..

My old white faced gauges post... scroll down and it gives a how to open/ close the bezel on the gauges...(as well as doing the gauge faces....)
