Rain water bubbling by windshield
« on: June 21, 2015, 09:09:52 AM »

Was out riding yesterday and noticed that while riding in a rain storm that the rain water was coming under the windshield by the fairing windshield air duct and was forming big bubbles on both sides of it. I know that the windshield is properly installed as per hd manual and the dash area I call this area was getting wet any body else having this issue or notice this happening to them when out riding in the rain

Not to be flip, but you are outside on a motorcycle and it is raining. No weatherstrip on the windshield or the fairing or the vent. Water on inside is a given to me. Mine has been in rain, but I never noticed.

Not sure what the problem is.  Are you saying water is getting inside the fairing to the electronics?

I've seen it on mine. Looks like there's a couple of drain holes on either side of the top vent to prevent water from pooling up on the dash.

It's a motorcycle, it's gonna get wet, I'm not worried about it.
