Mine's been washed and I've been in the rain and several weeks ago, I noticed moister under the glass. It went away and hasn't returned, after a long day in the Texas sun. So far...*knock on wood*...everything's working fine.

Most HD gauges will fog, old or new. What sucks is if/when they leave a water mark/stain on inside. "They all do it" as they say.

Same here.

I used to care...not so much anymore. It doesn't affect the ability to tell speeds. It does affect my OCD though...just gotta forget about it

Usually disappears in the sun. Bike stays garaged, but for the first 30 minutes of a trip out (especially in the humid air), it fogs up in lower corner.

Mine did that from day one. Always dried out on it's own, next time out it would do it again. I never let it bother me. I just got the speedo-tach combo and this one stays clear all the time, looks great and I love how it works.
