Speedometer accuracy?

394 Views 3 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  UGAfan
I’ve had a couple of recent Ducatis and both Speedo’s were out by 10%. Doing 100 kmh on GPS, while the speedo read 110.
I was wondering if this bike is the same; and what people can do about it if so.

Yup, for me it's pretty consistent above like 35 mph reading 5 mph faster than I'm really going.

This is probably pretty standard on all motorcycles as I've seen it on Harleys (two different ones), BMW 1250GS and Kawasakis as well.
Same here. Dx speedo is about 5-7% higher than the Zumo. I call that 'margin' 🚔
