Condensation in speedoI've read something about this before on this forum but can't really remember what the cure was, I've had the clock resealed by the Guzzi dealer but it's still the same, as soon as the sun shines the clock steams up, I've got a screen on my Griso and since I've had it its never been out in the rain yet still its wet on the inside. Does anyone know of a good cure for this before the computer starts swimming.
Re: Condensation in speedoWell, it´s not a cure but I had my speedo cloud up on my Griso but after a short ride it allways cleared. I didn´t do anything about it as it was only a minor problem after each wash.
Re: Condensation in speedoMine does the same thing and it's never been out in the rain. I use a micro fiber towel with a spray bottle of water and then some Honda spray polish. My speedo fogged up a lot last week in the sun. From about the 2 on the tach over to the lower third on the right side. The fog covers up the odometer and trip readouts. The fog went away eventually but it sure doesn't seem to be working as designed in my book. I have the small Guzzi flyscreen on it. Any suggestions to actually prevent it from fogging up would be great.
Does this also happen on the Brevas and Norges? Thank You, Mark
Re: Condensation in speedoI thought they'd cured this now
Best way to deal with it I've heard is remove the dash face and dri the whole dash out either with a hairdrier or in a VERY LOW oven. Then quickly re-seal it with adequate silastic, (ie, more than digitek do!). Some people also drill small vent holes in the loer rear of the dash to allow air to circulate through it but I'm a bit shy of that idea for obvious reasons. FWIW my dash mists a bit but never to the extent of forming actual water droplets but I do live in one of the driest habitable areas on earth. Pete

Yes, but here is a write up for the cure. I'd just do the dremel part to improve venting. John Zibell

Re: Condensation in speedoGuzzi will cover this under warranty . The dealer told me to take pics of it fogging up and send them in . I had a new dash put in free of charge and no more fogging since . It was a day ride to and from and about an hour to replace it but well worth it as the part is $ 1200.00 .
Good luck with yours, Steve
Re: Condensation in speedo
Thanks Steve! I just left the dealer and they told me the same thing. Guessing the new Dash is working well? Brian
Re: Condensation in speedo
No problems so far . Cooler weather coming here soon so the new dash will definitely be tested . I just got back from a three day ride were the temp varied 20 degrees cent. from morning to mid-day and no problem . Good to hear your dealer will look after you . Cheers, Steve
Re: Condensation in speedoJust picked up the '07 Bellagio, evidence of fogging and moisture inside.
1. Do they replace dashes when bike is outside warranty (in Australia)? 2. Is the Bella dash fix same as Griso? I'd rather ride a slow bike fast, than a fast bike slow. But the older I get the faster I was.
