Instrument cluster burning ?
 

Hi !
Just wanted to share what is happening to some RX3s (Touring) here.

The dash seems to be decolorating a bit from the sun reflected in the windshield. Does this happened to anyone else?

Interesting problem, Peperino, thank you for sharing the warning.:clap:

My bike is parked outside in the sun while I am at work and have not had that happen yet. I may need to start covering the shield and instruments with an old t-shirt.

This happened to the LCD on my Stelvio, the windscreen focused the light a bit too much and now the backlight has a "bruised" color and some melted plastic in the upper corner of the clear cover.

I'd recommend bringing a cloth or covering with gloves if possible, that's what I now do with all my bikes.

I haven't noticed a problem, myself. However, I now understand why some people prefer to have a smoke colored windshield. ;)

Here the bikes are delivered with both, sometimes with the clear one, sometimes with the smoked one. The smoked one is shorter though.

The bike came with both windshiends, mine has the clear mounted and the dark into the rear box; it happened to my friend that he had to ask for the dark one because the dealer "forgot" it.:ohno:
Now I´ve mounted an aftermarket larger one with an intermediate smoke tone.

Many people didn't receive the 2nd one (I'm one of them) and then when asked for it Corven didn't want to deliver it saying it was a mistake.

I don't like the smoked windshield anyway, I prefer the clear one

If you have time, please post a photograph of the larger, aftermarket windshield, and a link to the vendor. :)

Spud, it is a local vendor, 'Parabrisas Curtain'

We have seen worse results with the 'Curtain' windshield, really burning the dash, I'll post a photo soon

Here's the smoked one

We have seen a few cases here already with the aftermarket windshield

But I started this post because I see some decoloration in mine too, and I have the clear, stock windshield

Wow! As I say to the people that I work around, "mucho mas grande' no bueno!"

Is the damage from the Sun going through the shield or from being reflected from the inside?

Being so close to the Equator there is not much way to escape the Sun.

I believe the little curve where the bolt goes is the culprit. If you notice in my first pic, the decoloration happens right in the holders

I checked my speedometer this afternoon. I don't see any discoloration, or any damage whatsoever. :shrug:

I suggest you try a smoked windshield. You could also paint your clear windshield. ;)
