Default RE: H-D Not water proof

ORIGINAL: CorL

When I bought the bike (new) I was aware to expect some shortcomings.
Every brand and type hase some.

But it's not"moaning" to ask for something elementary like waterproof blinkers.

My dealer said that replacing the speedo for a new one will not solve the problem.

Oh yeah Vegashd, my fork lock also blocked -an evident design flaw, but I fixed that all by myself.

BTW, Sam, how did you manage to get off your speedo glass?
I washed my roadglide 1 day and lost my freakin radio for 3 weeks. dealer was gonna replace it, but then magically the day before the appt to replace it, the damn thing dried out enuf to start working again, and I was screwed. So now I put a towel over it when I wash the bike.my guages also get moisture in them when I wash the bike but they clear up pretty quick.

Moisture, check! Like stated, Hondas do it too. I don't sweat moisture int he guages. I've written it off as a normal.
