Speedo Correctness

[agentadam]

How true is the speedometer. My last suzukis have always been a few under.

 

[jefro]

Mine read 7% higher than actual.

How true is the speedometer. My last suzukis have always been a few under.

What models?

Every bike I've had has always read faster than actual....

 

[BigBSBusa]

Mine read 7% higher than actual.

That's what mine read too. Typical for all the bikes I have had (7-10% on the highside).

 

[schroetf]

for me at maxton 170 on speedo was actually 155

 

[smithabusa]

yep busa speedo is quite a ways off at higher speeds.

10 % for mine, but I am running 45/18 sprockets
I have a speedohealer that my speedo now reads 100% dead on with my GPS unit,,

I meant that you are actually doing a few under compared to the speedo like 4-7mph. So its actually progressive.

Progressive. correct.

Faster you go the more the speed is off. Before my speedohealer I always knew my speedometer had to read 62 to be going 55.

A lot of it depends on what size sprockets you are running front and rear. If you are worried about how far off you are, I would get a speedo healer.

Does having your speedometer off, effect the odometer?

Does having your speedometer off, effect the odometer?

Yes it does

 

[Lycan]

Yes it does

And yup...if you pull the needles...it will be off ven more...don't aske me how I know

 

[dmrowe]

Gotta read the forum labels...stay out of the GenII. But I think the 7% to 10% is just about uniform, that is what was for my '06 Gen I. Yellow Box, Speed-O-Healer will do the trick.

 

[BIKE DUDE]

With the factory speedo being off by as much as it is and then with my +3 in the back. I definitely need a Speedohealer now.

 

[doomsday]

My 08 was off around 7% with stock gearing.

 

[Busa1166]

Mine i believe was 33.8 % off After I added 220 gauges an went plus 3 in the rear

 

[pashnit]

Mine is 10% & incredibly annoying- about 10-15 mph. I remember leading a tour group up the freeway one time and I had to radio back to my sweep to ask how fast we were going. He said we were doing over 80 with the entire group in tow.

Speedohealer fixed all that and happily every after.

My '09 is off about 5-7, But after I switched to 190/55's in the rear it is down to about 3-4. Do not ask me how I know.

All 3 of my bikes were off.... 02 gsxr 1k fixed with a yellow box.... the 08 busa fixed with a speedohealer... and the 09 Gsxr 1k fixed with a speedoDRD! Recommend getting them to read right... especially if you change sprockets!
