There is usually some descrepency between actual and gage speed on most vehicles, especially those with analog/cable speedo's. Tires and gearing changes have the most impact. 5mph is a lot if everything is factory... but I have seen 3-4 mph difference... have about 4 on my Goldwing - but have different profile tires.

For electronic speedometers there are boxes you can add to correct the speedometer. I guess for cable speedo's you have to use "math"... !!

My speedometer is about 5 mph off. When it shows 55 I am really going about 50. Tires are stock. Just wondering if anyone else has had this. Thanx
