2017 Tri Glide. Had the bike out in some rain a few times with no issues. Then I have the fairing addon that holds 3 punches on the rider's side of the windscreen.

Today I am out in a light rain for about 15 minutes. Once in the garage I see a LOT of moisture trapped between the pouches and the windscreen.
(See pics)

So I am thinking is this normal? Didn't happen before the pouches were added.
Could the shop have done something wrong in attaching the pouches?

Is there a remedy for this? Tried using a hair dryer to dry it. Did not work.
And I certainly don't want to pull the ouches any further from the windscreen.

Would appreciate any thoughts or comments.

Thanks
Gerry

 

I have a 15 and I get moisture.

 

This could be condensation but, it could also just be rain that ran down the back side of the windshield. Or...
You say you had the dealer install the pouches, so I wonder if they installed the two foam spacers which come with them. Take a look between the inner and outer fairings, about at the edge, left an right, where the windshield ends are. You should see some small black foam spacers. If they are not there you will see a gap. That may be where the moisture, in your case rain, got in. Something about changes in the design of the Rushmore batwing requires the spacers.
All that said, I have had moisture like that when I wash mine.

 

Same "problem" on my 2014. After I wash the bike I use my air compressor to plow out as much water I can between the windshield and the pouch.

 

The main reason I removed mine. That and installing a Freedom shield.

 

I have had the same problem and I can usually get most of it out using a lint free cloth wrapped around a long piece of string and working it back and forth. I wonder how much of that moisture is getting down between the inner and outer fairing. I think I will take mine apart sometime in the near future and check it out. It woould be nice if there were a rubber gasket along the top of the inner and outer edge of the shield wouldn't it?

 

These things always have that problem. I just ignore it for the most part because of the convenience, although when I dry the trike with a leaf blower after a wash most of it comes out. Or a nice long ride usually does the trick!

 

Like the long ride option.

 

Works best

 

It will dry
