Dashboard cracked on 2014 F3 800
Hi all,
I had my dashboard crack all the way through, when parked. I haven’t been able to ride it due to an injury. I pulled the cover off of the bike and the dash cracked all the way from the right side buttons all the way through the screen.
Anyone experience this?
I also went to my dealer and they said the 2014 dash has been discontinued. Anyone ever put a 2015 dash on a 2014?
Any help would be appreciated

I think the discontinued dash is the one with red color background.
From 2015/2016 they started using a white background.
Not sure if they actually changed layout.

When you say "pulled off the cover" Did you mean rip off the cover? Im battling to get my mind how the dash got cracked?

As mentioned above, the new dash has a white background and improved layout.

I live in Northern California too. Not many huge temperature swings here

Sounds to me like something impacted your dash while the bike was stored.

Sorry to hear that!
I had a similar thing happen to my bike! It was parked in a secured bicycle shed and some idiot threw a single mattress on top of the whole bike (I found the mattress resting against the wall and sitting on my bike). As a result the screen buckled and bashed the dashboard. The impact caused a few of the areas around the dash to crack. I don't think it was a malicious action, more of a lack of care coupled with idiocy.
I have since done a track day and luckily the cracks have not increased.
To me it sounds like someone has dropped something accidentally over your screen. Have you checked your screen for marks?

No evidence of that. No damage anywhere else and the crack starts at the bottom right. Hard to get anything in that area to hit it hard enough and not damage anything else
