Does anyone have a solution to the reflected glare on the screen when the sun is behind you?

If sun glasses aren't helping not sure what will. With the sunlight hitting it straight on it sounds like lack the lack of covering by the inner fairing.

I found that a huge issue with the vrod muscle. Test riding one and with the sun at my back I could not see any of the speedometer and other stuff unless I put my hand over them blocking the sun.


To expect to be perfect is unreasonable, to strive for perfection is reasonable.

I have an idea, might help...
We have one of those radio controlled flying drones and it has a neat feature. On the screen it has a fold out shade that covers the 3 sides away from the view to keep the sun out. You might be able to make something out of some stiff cardboard or sheet metal and spray paint it flat black to do the trick.

Works the same as using your hand to keep the glare out. Don't know how you'd attach it or really how you'd be able to make it so - just an idea.


You can have it cheap.
You can have it fast.
You can have high quality.
PICK ANY 2....
