if it flashes twice your speedo is out

Stick a satnav on, go for a run at 50mph and 100mph, note difference betwen speedo and satnav. Then just allow for the difference , costs nothing :)
At 100mph on my satnav my speedo reads 97, rather be under than over.

+1 for using your sat nav, or phone Speedo app.

I got a Speedo healer for my gen 2 but still had to use my phone app to check it was where I wanted it. And if all things it was only accurate in one area of speed, it just moved the error elsewhere.
Stop polishing it and ride the bloody thing!!

I give up, give us another clue. How far out do you think 'way out' is?
