Member Contributer fink Posted September 23, 2016 Member Contributer Share Posted September 23, 2016 No problems with mine either touch wood, its left outside when at work and sometimes at home. I also live on the West coast of Scotland so its usually raining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same conditions as above, bike parked in sunshine no wind on firm ground with moist grass, two hours later condensation appeared. There has to be a design issue with these panels. Honda is investigating and the anomaly has been logged against my bike just in case there is ever a failure with the panel due to moisture. That reflection looks like a blue sky to me. He might be out here in California. Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrTeeHee Posted September 23, 2016 Author Share Posted September 23, 2016 Mine is garaged, and dry use only. Which means permanently garaged living in the U.K. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep that is right, firm ground with morning dew. Done this a hundred times with my 6th gens and never had an issue. This issue with condensation is very dependant on atmospherics. The both times its happend with the two different panels on my 8th gen, the weather conditions were identical and bike was located at the same spot.

There are now three of us on this thread that have had issues and sadly my replacement panel is doing the same thing. DON'T let them tell you its the way you wash your bike, I've never used a pressure washer or ever spray water directly near the instrument panel. I'm happy to send you the VIN number of my bike if it helps to support your issues, I assume they would be able to check my bike details via their Honda website. I have a letter from Honda assuring me that I'm covered for the life of the bike should any issue arise from instrument panel condensation. Cheers. Grum.
