Nope, never hit with anything more than a garden hose. But, I also bought it used last year (with only 1400 miles on it, but still it is a 2014).
It's been parked in the sun several times... Of course, I live in Virginia, if the sun would dry it out, then the humidity will fog it up again. We've had several days in the 90% humidity range recently. But, if it's sealed, this shouldn't be a problem either way.
Its not a sealed unit ..there is a tiny hole in the back of your speedo. It will dry up. While my friend and I were riding he was upset at the condensation in his speedo, I looked and my bike had it too, later in the day both were clear.swifty
I have an 07 RK and my Harley speedo has at times collected condensation. It looks as if Harley does not see this as a problem. To me these bikes cost way to much for this kind of problem to happen. Maybe Harley sees a benefit it allowing this to continue. Speedo and tach have neve given me any real problems but it is annoying looking at your through a cloudy speedo.
