    Makes a change from the usual biker preoccupation with getting the helmet and leathers off the bird

    Given that my bird won't go anywhere near any bike that I am(supposedly) in control of, that ain't a problem for me, Ixion...

    Stop speeding in the city centre then. They're 50km/h roads for a reason.

    When I said 'open road' I was meaning 100kmh roads. I've had the speedo over 180kmh on that (on a private road which is closed to members of the public just for liability reasons) and it was still pulling. Not bad for a 4 stroke 250cc bike.

    Try doing a factory re-set boot up. (usually by holding down a couple of buttons while you hit the on button)

    It may do a self calibration and go back to its old self.

    Worth a try anyhow.

    Ah, you could've said it. I thought it's as opposed to closed roads.
