    Default 2018 F3 Touring- heavy dust on dash board area

    Good afternoon, we have a new 2018 F3 Limited Spyder, after riding for awhile we notice the dash board, inside of windshield and the surrounding area in front of the handlebars is covered in dust to the point that it?s hard to see the gauges by the end of the day, has anyone experienced this or it the nature of the beast? One change I did make was adding Baker lower wings. When weather permits I will remove the lower wings to see if this makes a difference.

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions to prevent this.

    Default Depends...

    Windshields and wind deflectors in certain sizes and adjustment will drag in the dust and debris from behind. You could try with different adjustment to see if it makes a difference. Not common and have not seen others mention this.

    I noticed the same effect on my 2018 RT, dust and also water droplets (if you happen to ride in the rain) will collect on the display screen.

    I now make a note of giving it a wipe before taking off for a ride.
