Default Weather Band!!
Every afternoon while riding home the radio goes to weather band !! Has anyone else had this happen? It does it only in the afternoon and does not seem related to bumps in the road.

The same thing happened to me. The radio kept changing to the Weather band by itself. I traced the problem to the handlebar switch. Since my bike is still under waranty, my dealer repaired it at no charge.

I think the the weather band is the most useless feature on the radio. Weather band is good for boaters.......

Mine did it all the time. Maybe it's because the outside temperature is a it's highest in the afternoon this is what's causing the problem. Heat.
