Default Speedo case missing cover?
Is the speedo on the 2016 Breakout supposed to be open the way it is on the bottom or is there supposed to be a cover plate of some type? Seems to be a bit stupid to leave that open to the elements the way it is.

Seems odd that they left it open to water intrusion like that!
