Speedometer and odometer
« on: May 13, 2015, 11:04:50 AM »
I have verified that my speedeter is off by 8mph (68=60) does this affect my odometer?
I tend to worry about mpg more than mph, I go fast enough. On all my vehicles I tend to use mpg as a ongoing health check. I commute every day on the bike that is above 22 degrees, so most of my miles are the same as far as speed and idling at lights.

The Odometer is very accurate. The speedometer can be corrected with a procedure in the library section.
