Good site by the look of it - but to take the piss for a second - if I may...

One one hand they ask the rhetorical question - is the odometer reliable? and a few lines into the odo readings they proceed to answer it - seemingly in the negative...!

Mind you - April till October '07 I WAS a bit of a legend on the RF clocking up 4,285 KMs/day...! That's 178.5kph on average foer the whole 6 month period!

Anyone got questions about the RF's reliability now??? huh? HUH???

LOL!

Shit thats cool,

This has been up on KB twice now.

The dodgy figures in the report aren't from Carfax -- they come directly from the main LTSA/LTNZ/LTWTF database. So when you go from 70,000kms to 770,000kms then back to 80,000kms, this is a result of your WoF tester (or whoever typed it into the computer) misreading your speedo and adding an extra zero on the end.

That's also the reason why Carfax can't change the data; it's not their database to modify.

It's only beta right now; I think it future versions they plan to have a local correction matrix -- so when you tell them this information is incorrect, they'll show the original (official!) LTSA data (showing 770,000kms), but then right next to it they'll show `this figure has been marked as incorrect by one of our users, and should instead be 77,000kms'.

Seems pretty good. Details for the bikes I have are right. The one I wrote off is still there, but comes up as a previous plate with the details given for it's new numberplate, and shows that it has been re-registered.

for one of my bikes its all wrong
