Speedometer accuracy

Max said:

Finally got my new nine t on Saturday. LOVE it. It rides wonderfully. Am I really going as fast as the speedometer says? Doing 90 feels like doing 75 on my old r1200c. Does anyone know the likelihood that the speedo is off?

I'm loving mine so far too.

I've mounted my GPS and at 90mph indicated the GPS was reporting 80. At 75 indicated GPS reported 67. At 65 GPS was 60. That's from memory... could be a couple mph off...

So it does appear to be a bit off. Good to know how much to adjust by though.
