2021 Outside Temp Gauge Issue

[Pooch]

Funny you mention clocks. I'm highly impressed with the accuracy of the clock on my '20 RT. Aside from semi-annual adjustments for DST/ST I've only had to adjust mine twice in nearly two years. The clock on my old '14 gained about a minute-and-a-half every WEEK!

I have not had any negative issues with the clock on my 2021 RTLtd. It is quite accurate.

As to the ambient temp gauge - today my ride partner and I compared readings (via SENA headsets) while on the fly... he is riding an air-cooled 2018 Indian Chieftain trike.
The Indian read 86*, my Spyder read 84*.... NOAA records for the area at the time showed 79*... so there's my usual 5* difference between the Spyder and the NOAA temp at the time.... not enough to give it a second thought.

I sort of 'guessed' my 20 RTL was about 5 degrees warmer than ambient, so now I have a pretty good read on it.

The only temp gauge that I worry about is the engine temp, ambient temp doesn't matter to me.

There are some good stick ons for those who want real temps.
