Tom, Take a look at this article about speedos https://www.hdforums.com/m_86294/tm.htm



ORIGINAL: tom1340

My '05 FLHTCI has 3+ percent error in odometer. Speed error seems even higher. It shows 80 mph when I am running 75. Has anyone else seen this on thier bike?

Too funny...

I just returned from my first long trip on my new Ultra and swear I was going to post a few things. 1. picts and info about the trip and another on this issue:

Yes, mine is off. It says I'm going just about 4 mph faster than my GPS says I'm going. On my trip I passed a bunch of those radar boards that tell you how fast you are going and sure enough, my bike thinks she's going 4 mph faster then I am. Now, does this mean that my milage will be off a bit too? I assume if the bike thinks I'm going faster, the miles will add up a shade faster or are these not related? I know the differance will be slim to none, just curious?

Joe
