After doing my 600 mile service, I started up the spyder and let it warm up, about 5 minutes so I could recheck the oil level( I initially put in 4 qts) Shut off engine and added 1/2 qt more. Later on I started it back up and the borderline of the multifunction screen was orange. I shut it off. Later I started it back up to check for codes and the screen was back to normal and no codes. So I'm wondering if the nanny sensed low oil pressure, would that temporarily turn the screen orange with no other warnings?...Or what?

Did the screen look orange like this?68779 If so this is the night time color, changes when dark.

No problem, it was a shock the first time I rode at night when it changed to orange. Guess they may have told me during the delivery process, but with all the info coming in, that one did not hit the memory bank.
Anyway glad it is OK, and now you know what the night time cluster looks like.

I put my gloves on the center of the bars this morning and it took me a while to figure out why I had an orange screen. It didn't compute right away that I caused it. Happens.
