I have a 2016 RTL with the orange instrument cluster but I've seen pics of a blue instrument cluster. Is the blue cluster a different year or is there a way to change colors on my bike?

Is it orange all the time, or just in the dark? it should switch colors between dark and daylight. If it doesn't, someone may have "rigged" it to trick it to think it's dark.
Blue until 2012. They made them orange in 2012. On the RT model anyways.
Ignorance??? Nah! Just think of it as "Excuse my having missed the opportunity to encounter and assimilate knowledge pertinent to this particular issue!" :roflblack: :ohyea: :read:
Look for a piece of tape that covers the light sensor somewhere on the cluster screen. It's possible the light sensor has failed, but if it has that would be the first one reported here on the forum.
No, light sensor works. Just not fond of that orange. Would have preferred blue.
Good question. I took SilverFox's answer to mean the screen turned blue after dark. Here is a quote from the 2011 RT Operator's Guide.
It doesn't say what the darker color is. According to SF it must have been blue.Quote:
The display will use a light color when
the ambient light is bright and will automatically
change to a darker color
when the ambient light is dusky.
Isn't there a setting in the menu?
