Most speedos are inaccurate -- and become wildly optimistic at higher speeds (for our own good). If you track speedo readings vs. a good GPS, you'll see the error pretty easily. (My Honda Accord is off by 3 mph at 70 mph. I'm confident my CBR600RR is off by more than that.)
My 132 in a '76 Camaro (back in '78 when I was young and stupid) was confirmed by four units of the Oklahoma Highway Patrol. How's THAT for authentication? Last edited by FlashBazbo; 04-22-2009 at 11:49 AM. |
