Pretty sure Gone has the RE INT650 California model...the fogging up is an early warning indicator that tells the rider it's too chilly for CA riders to be on the road. Kinda of a canary in the mine deal.

lol - and I reckon over time the instrumentation "fog" will slowly turn into a waxy/greasy stain on the inside resembling?

I am not to worry. My gauges have yellow stickers on the back sides, which, according to the folks on the RE forum means that my gauges have been blessed by disciples of Visnnu and will never have an issue.

I’m gathering that yellow stickers on RE gauges are sort of their RLETs.

Very practical gadget. Like it.

Can't imagine blowing the whistle inside a full-face helmet - lol.

@Mr Lee: If one glued two iPad Pro/s on the mirrors, in plain sight of the rider, such bike would even look better. And I am sure you could use their connectivity and processing powers to get a very, very accurate temp estimate for your time and location.
