Water In Gauges
While out on a ride today, I noticed that I have droplets of water on the inside of my speedo. Naturally, I am rather upset with this. Is there a way to remove the glass face to clean up the water or am I stuck buying an entire new speedo and having the dealer update the odometer?

When its hot out My water evaporates. Also Mine is more
in the fuel gauge. I have seen quite a few threads on this
and most say the dealer claims its normal. Also Harley
wont warranty it unless it stains Your glass.

every Harley I have washed has had this problem, mostly in fuel gauge like Hybridjohn says, but also in indicators in dash.

Got the same thing, as long as the guages work, I don't worry.
Sometimes it goes away. Just my 02.

Happens to me everytime I was my 07 Train.. And it did happen in the fuel gauge too until I put in the flush mounts.. Which Im starting to think they are complete garbage too..

All three of the HDs I have owned in the past 5 years get condensation in the gauges. The dealers always say its normal. I have never seen acutal water droplets, just condensation and it always goes away on a warm day.

On a hot day, it will go away.
