Mine has done it since new (Sep 07) when the ambient temperature is below 12C or so. And I agree it is a disgrace in this day and age. I was told replacement under warranty was unavailable cos "they all do it". In early January my speed was unreadable about 15 miles into a run. What do you do? Stop and freeze to death on the moors or ride home carefully hoping you don't get pulled? Come on Ducati - you make fantastic products spoilt by silly things like this.
