When I changed to a 33 front pulley and a 160 rear tire, my speed is spot on now.

For those that put the 160 tire on to help out with the accuracy, did you put on a 160/80 - 16 or was it a different one? My 2009 Road Star is between 5-7 mph off (too high), trying to figure out how to get it closer to accurate.

Best I can estimate, from others GPS and fixed radar displays my speedo reads 4mph fast at 70 mph. It seems to be off by around 2-3 at 35 mph. This is only somewhat educated guess work.  |

A couple of our school zones have radar setups and when I go through at around 50mph, I consistently see 46-47 in the radar display.
Little bit fast for a school zone wouldn't you say???
I have a 2000 R* that is off by 5 mph
I have a 2002 R* and it seems to be 2 mph off.

I've an '01 in the same colors as yours. I went to a 31 tooth pulley and put a speedo-healer in. I used their online calculator and punched in an 11% lower number. It still reads about 1 mph too fast, but I'm not going to try to "heal" it any more than that.
