Hi all

Has anyone on here had the tachometer bubble like this?
If so, what did you do to fix it ?
This happened to me yesterday here in Australia. The bike was in the sun for approx 45 minutes 27 degree day. I have had the bike sit in the sun for 4 hours in 40+ degree heat and not had this happen.

What about glass ornament on the window sill setting fire to curtains theory that the fire brigade have ? When the sun is at the right angle of dangle for it to happen. Ashamed to admit it but we used to pop ants as kids using a magnifying glass to the same effect...
