If this has been said before..........I appologize!
Does Honda really think that Goldwings don't move at night? For the money that we spend on these fine machines, you would think they would have all the controls light up at night. The speedometer has internal lighting and it's even inaccurate! Maybe they should take the internal lighting out of it as well. Although I realize that there is aftermarket kits out there to correct this, why?? 
Please don't think I'm complaining about what Goldwings cost today because my next motorcycle will be a new Goldwing as well because I absolutely love the machine (which I'm currently on my second one)..........My point is that I'm dissappointed that Honda would take the cheap way out. 
Does Honda expect their automobile customers to install an aftermarket kit so that can see the controls at night? I don't think so and with todays prices, motorcycles and automobiles costs about the same these days so why short change the Wing?
Just my 2 cents......
