Recently bought a Keeway Superlight 125cc. I know, crap bike but am just using it to pass my test. All the dials look like the glass has been wiped with a dirty/greasy rag - ON THE INSIDE SURFACE OF THE GLASS!! Does anyone know, do I remove the bezel on the top of the dials or do I have to remove the dial and undo screws/clips on the underside of the housing to release the glass? I've taken the dial off and there's no obvious fixings on the dial and the bezel doesn't want to budge. Any help gratefully received as I don't want to break the dial for something so trivial (but annoying).

That sounds very peculiar. Can you please show us a picture, with a tin of custard for scale?

Sorry, no tins of custard. Picture in your head - dirty glass that needs a wipe clean. Any idea how to get the glass free of the Speedo housing?

Disassemble the front of the bike and lay it on the pavement.

If that doesn't help, then it's likely the seals have failed leaving them to condensate and marr the glass. Take the clocks off, turn them over and unscrew the back cover - it'll be a case of disassembling the inner bits to get to the front; I doubt it's a case of unscrewing the bezel in any way.
