Sorry for the delay in up dating.
My dealer took my bike in and managed to reproduce the issue I was seeing when riding in the rain, ie screen playing up and flicking from one screen to another by putting a hose pipe on the screen.
They then run some tests and could not find a reason for the strange actions on screen, then they dried the screen and cleaned it with alcohol to remove any contaminates from the screen and tried the hose pipe trick again..... the screen did not falter!
It seems there was fingerprints on my screen and when the rain hit it it activated like I was touching it. I couldn't believe it when they told me.
I have always kept my screen clean but obviously not clean enough, anyway now I pay particular attention to it and I have had no problems since..
