I re-installed the windshield, and was pleased to note the mounting nuts near the power outlets were much easier to install.

Then I re-installed the headlight, and it also installed much more easily without the wiring harness pushing on it from behind.

Then I went for a test ride to check the accuracy of the speedometer compared to my Garmin GPS receiver.

I mounted the SpeedoDRD in a protected spot beneath the speedometer. However, I left enough slack in the wire so I can easily retrieve the unit to re-program it for corrections whenever I desire.

After riding around a bit, I determined the initial setting was too 'pessimistic.' Therefore, I experimented some more, and finally configured the SpeedoDRD for a setting of negative 10.2%. This setting appears to be nearly perfect for my Kenda, K270 front tire.
