Same here!

It does eventually stop fogging after a few days of drying out only to repeat after a good rain lmao!

Cheers,

Steeler told me that they all do it and H-D will warranty it one time, if the bike is under warranty. My SB does it and my Sporty did it. I did not know you could take it apart and clean it. I'll have to try that.

not just an H-D problem, my Honda dose this to. What about drilling a small hole in the face to help air it out?

Mine doesn't either. (Northern Idaho) Maybe it's cause it's always friggin' cold around here and never gets hot enough to actually create condensation... LOL Why DO I live here anyway???

Ditto--it does clear up. The tech told me it's a problem that Harley has had with speedos for a long time. I just learned to live with it.
