Mine works fine, I have compared to others buy asking what theirs read. this instrument gives me the heads up as to weather condition changes. Like, temps are dropping,or climbing. gives me the heads up to pull over and either add clothes or hydrate

Mine works, and did on my 98 FLTRI too.  The trouble I have with it is that is takes 30-40 minutes to equilibrate.  If I leave my garage it will read my garage temp until I get to work, at which point it will be pretty close to the outside temp.

I like to see when it is getting below mid 30s as I know it's time to head home before there is ice on the road.  With the heated seats and handgrips I have been surprised that it was that cold at times.  I hit a patch of ice last fall and it woke me up really quickly! :o

First time I open the fairing the air temperature gauge will be replaced with an oil temperature gauge.  All I need to know about air temperature is that if there is no ice in my beard, it's warm enough to ride.   ;)
