“New motorcycle and first night out with it. Instrument panel at night is not legible. The lighting on the instrument cluster (speedometer and tachometer) is too dim to be able to read the numbers making it imposible to determine speed and rpms.”
NHTSA complaint #10929830, filed 2016-12, 600 miles“The instrument cluster that displays the speed and rpms is dimly lit because of opaque paint used on back of board containing the numbers. For riding at night the numbers are too dim to read driving speed or engine speed.”
