Just got back from the new meter being installed, it could take several days or more to be certain of no resets. The one big notable difference, I now have only 56 miles on the odometer; I lost my total miles but the VIN will show it when I go to sell it that it has extra miles.

I just called honda corporate: they explained that all 2014 affected model will need a new dash to fix the issue. they are not considering this to be a recall but a Technical service bulletin.
this TSB will last until Dec 2019.
he also explained that you do not have to wait for the letter to be received in order for you to go in to the dealer. you can go anytime, and is free.
Is there any change in how the dash goes bonkers when the fuel level gets low?
Are you under the impression that all 2014 owners will be getting this letter? I hope so. I didn't really want to leave my bike at the dealers for a couple of days as they searched for a intermittent problem. I need to talk to them about my rear tire too. A little over 2000 miles and the damn thing is down to the wear indicators. And I drive very conservatively.
I don't know what you mean by the fuel gauge going bonkers, I think mine (the old one) was working just fine, just had the trip meter resetting.
When the tank on my bike hits reserve the trip meter display on the dash starts flashing on and off and reads zero miles. This is with about a gallon left in the tank.
Might be a good time to review the manual.
I didn't quite understand the manual myself regarding low fuel. It seemed like I rode around forever with that thing flashing "00' at me, until it finally started counting up. I still don't know quite how far it will get before.....POOF! No more GO-GO. I've let it count up to 0.6 so far...
It's a bit of a ditherer. It thinks to itself 'oooo is he running out? shall I tell him ? shan't I?' Then it decides. Then it thinks it might have made a mistake (going downhill) so 'Strike that - we are OK fella'. and every time it dithers the display goes back almost to normal then the little guy pedalling the display panics again. Each time there's a dither the count-up of fuel used is reset to zero. When it can't argue with physics any more (the sensor is permanently in fresh air), it counts up properly .... and in my case reliably gives me another 3.6 litres before going poof.I didn't quite understand the manual myself regarding low fuel.
