The most worthless instrument

The 2006 Harley Davidson Streetglide has the following instruments on the fairing. Speedometer, Tachometer, Oil Pressure, Fuel Gague, Voltage and the most worthless instrument with potential the air temp gague. This would be very cool if it was accurate. This morning the temp was 48 degrees and i'm driving 70 mph, guess what temp my Streetglide thought it was, 68 degrees. On the way home the temp was 68 and I was driving 75mph yet the Streetglide thought it was 80 degrees. I'm guessing the sensor must be behind one of the cylinders or something so with a gague so worthless why bother. I'd prefer to have a gague for oil temp vs air temp. Oh well, its a great bike none the less.
