    Default Does Anybody Know What Time It Is?

    A nod to Chicago for one of their best songs in my humble opinion. But here's the thing, the clock on my Spyder jumps from a 12 hour clock to 24 hours all by itself and then back again. Usually on alternating days. More of an annoyance than anything else. I have another on my wrist and another on my phone so knowing what time it is not a hindrance. Just wondering if there's other time travelers riding Spyders.

    Should mention the radio works fine but I never use it preferring to the sound of wind and engine. But that's just me.

    Do you go 88 mph every couple of days?

    Sounds like you have a gremlin in the clock setting mechanism. How old is the battery? Low or bad battery causes electrical glitches.

    Default Spyder Time

    ....Never had your problem, but my Spyder Time seems to run a little faster. It will gain a minute every day.
    I wear a watch and just go with the correct time.

    That could be it, the battery is going on 5 years old. Everything else is fine, just that goofy clock.

    I don't know how the hell you can even see it. It's so damn small for these old eyes on my 21. Use my Iphone mounted on the bars for time check.

    Mine doesn’t keep time either. Love the Wild Hogs clip though, great biker movie.

    I haven't seen that issue on the '21 RTL, but occasionally the entertainment system "locks up" - won't change songs via Bluetooth, input, volume, etc. Key off/on has fixed it so far.
