Speedometer fast
« on: March 06, 2017, 07:12:12 AM »
The speedometer on my 85 K100RS seems to run 8-10 mph faster than what I'm actually going- at least, based on my gear ratio calculations, and the general feeling of "I can't be going 95 mph right now". I know this is fairly common on Japanese bikes. Is it the same on our K's?


Thanks,
Andy
