Kinda odd but the speedometer is only off 2 MPH at 60 MPH according to my speedometer app on my cell phone which indicated 58 MPH. At lower speeds the speedometer is off by 10% or more.
Anyway I am very happy with the performance of the stock bike. After I break her in I will run her up to top speed,

I found my speedo is also off by about 10% at about 30 mph and maybe even worse when in the +40mph range, but then for some reason above that speed my speedometer is more accurate. I found this out yesterday, now that I’ve done more than Han 500 miles, and did the initial service, I rode purposefully rode by one of those digital speed checks and at around 55 mph I expected the speedometer to read 48-50 mph, but it was actually pretty accurate, off by maybe 1-2 mph.
So seems at lower speeds it’s off but then above 55mph appears to be more accurate.
