I have seen postings of a couple here and there. Some were condensation that Honda replaced under warranty but others were from submersion and Honda will not warranty those. The pic isn't very clear but that looks like more than just condensation, Honda may not warranty it.

If that display still works and Honda declines the warranty, you can remove about 6 screws and CAREFULLY split it apart and dry it all out and put it back together.

The cluster is vented on the back so if you are submerging your machine, you should plug all the vent holes on the back except one and then vent that one up higher so it doesn't happen again.

Warranty or at your expense? How much are they?

It's the cluster that retains the mileage on the Pioneer so I'd imagine it is the same on the Talon.
