have seen condensation in my 749s's tacho today, the bike is 3 months old, I have only washed it with sponge and hose pipe. spoke to the dealer and they said to keep an eye on it and if it becomes a major problem they will replace on warranty.

Had two 999's and never seen condensation in the tacho.
Is your bike garaged, or could it have been the cold night that caused it?

Mines gets it but its no big deal, it dries up fast.

my goes as quickly as it arrives (don't go to mental with sponge around clocks thou)

[mark749s]

it has disappeared as fast as it came, will it reappear?

[chris999]

depends how vigarous you are washing the bike..

while it is still in warrenty , get it changed. If you had bought second hand it is a different matter but as it is new and you have paid a lot of money for it get it changed or every time you look at it it will bug you.

spoke to the dealer and they are replacing under warranty, it happens when i have been out in the wet and the steam is coming off the radiator condensing on the screen.

I had the clocks changed for new today, the bike has only done 50 miles now its a pig having to run it in again!!!!!!
