Saturday morning I rode in approx. 45° sunny weather. Bike HATED the temp and bucked and spit for several minutes. E BR ecm so I was assuming a 'race' tune just wasnt designed for cold weather. As the morning warmed up , got a lot of condensation in tje cluster. Had a comm error briefly flash 2 or.3 times. Next time I started it , the tach was 'doubling' rpm. Ran fine just double rpm showing. I disconnected battery , gave a few mins then hooked back up. Problem solved , and has been fine since. Anyone else have something like that happen?

if the unit is fogging on the inside, get it replaced. There is a problem with it. As for everything else, I've been told by several people to check grounds. That's what I get to do this winter.

Good luck and have fun.

Something's wrong. Mine runs just fine in 45F. It gets cranky around 20F starting up.

Check grounds, check battery. A dying battery may have trouble in the cold and keep the voltage unreasonably low - the bikes do NOT like low voltage, I've noticed.

I've had problems like that in cold, rainy weather. The cluster fogged up and was showing like 500 rpms, but was running like normal. I turned it off and waited a sec and it stopped doing it. Is the cluster bad if it gets moisture in it when you wash the bike? Or if it's cold and humid and fogs??

I also get the fuel light sometimes when the tank is full. Is that cluster related as well. The bike never performs funny. I don't think it's the fuel pump.
