Consumer Description
INSTRUMENT LIGHTING IS TOO DIM/UNEVEN. AS A RESULT, SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER ARE UNREADABLE IN LOW AMBIENT LIGHT CONDITIONS, SUCH AS TWIGHLIGHT AT DAWN/DUSK AND RAINY WEATHER. RIDER NEEDS TO SPEND TOO MUCH TIME TO READ HIS SPEED AND ENGINE RPMS INSTEAD OF PAYING ATTENTION TO ROADWAY AND ENVIRONMENT. *AK
