    UNDER MOST CIRCUMSTANCES, IT IS HARD TO READ THE SPEEDOMETER. IT REQUIRES SEVERAL SECONDS OF FOCUS TO READ IT THAT COULD LEAD TO ACCIDENTS. *TR

    THE SPEEDOMETER ON THIS BIKE IS UNREADABLE DURING THE DAY. THE SMOKED LENS MAKES IT NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE YOUR SPEED AT A GLANCE AND INEVITABLY WILL RESULT IN A SPEEDING TICKET AND OR CRASH. PLEASE PLEASE FORCE A FIX ON THIS! *TR

    THE DIGITAL SPEEDOMETER ON THE 2014 YAMAHA STAR BOLT IN COMPLETELY UNREADABLE AT CERTAIN TIMES OF THE DAY, BUT ESPECIALLY WHEN HEADING INTO THE DIRECTION OF THE SUN. IT IS AN UNAVOIDABLE ISSUE THAT WILL EVENTUALLY HAPPEN TO ALL RIDES. A REMEDY SHOULD REALLY BE MADE BY THE MANUFACTURER. *TR

WOULD LIKE TO SEE IN ADDITION IS WHAT GEAR I AM CURRENTLY ON BE ADDED TO THE SPEEDOMETER. THANKS. *TR

    THE DIGITAL SPEEDOMETER ON THIS MOTORCYCLE IS UNREADABLE UNDER CERTAIN LIGHTING CONDITIONS. ANGLED SUNLIGHT (MORNING, EVENING WHEN LIGHT IS COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE) CREATES A CONDITION WHERE THE SPEEDOMETER READOUT IS UNREADABLE. THE ONLY METHOD OF MEASURING SPEED IS BY SURROUNDING TRAFFIC. THIS CREATES A DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR MOTORCYCLE DRIVERS, ESPECIALLY ON EXPRESSWAYS AND URBAN ENVIRONMENTS WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT CHANGES BY LOCATION. *TT

    THE SPEEDOMETER IS DARN NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO READ IN CERTAIN DAYLIGHT DRIVING SITUATIONS. THIS CAN BE A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE OF NOT KNOWING YOUR SPEED AND SPENDING TOO MUCH TIME LOOKING DOWN AND NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO THE ROADWAY. *TT
