    I agree you can get correct readings, but if you see a video on the internet showing a stock 600 doing close to 300KPH, something aint right.

    MY father N law took his Stock SP1 to a flying quarter and it was reading 299 (its a digital readout that only goes to 299) actual speed 266.

    "sorry officer i assumed my spedo was 15% out"

    lol yeah dreams are free....it was an '86 NC21 VFR400 - the best i got out of it was 182 (GPS) and the speedo was reading waaaaaaay off the clock

    looked impressive from the riders point of view tho

    yeah japs are shocking

    i got a speedohealer in the 600, which i have testing against a gps, it now reads with in 0.5km/h at 100km/h

    suzuki speedos read fast by 8% on average(factory build in)

    and in turn my dash reads the same as the aprilia at 100-160km/h at least
