I hit 170mph by my speedo 2007 z1000
Dose the speedo healer stay accurate at top speedIt should be noted that the speedometers on these bikes are pretty inaccurate. On my 06 Z1000, at an indicated 145mph on a short run, the GPS recorded 132 mph. Highest I've seen on mine was 155mph(indicated), but I'm no light weight either. I installed a speedo healer to make it spot on.
Yes. It will correct the ratio and as such it will be correct all the way through. If your stock speedo is off by 10% (common) it is worse the faster you go.Dose the speedo healer stay accurate at top speed

Question: I've had my new 2010 Z1000 for a week and I love it. The thing is that on 6th gear and over 80mph it feels and sounds to me like if I have to shift again to ease the engine, but I am already on 6th. Is it me? I had a Suzuki 2000 naked SV650 for five years which I traded in when I got the Z. Am I missing something? I appologize if I am posting in the wrong message board. Thanks!I hit 170mph by my speedo 2007 z1000
Well, if youre missing something, it might be the break-in instructions on your new bike!!!Question: I've had my new 2010 Z1000 for a week and I love it.

on the dyno my bike toped out at 150mph thats 80 mph over the speed limitI Have been 168 (on speedo) bouncing off rev limiter, several occassions. Had my wife on board at 150 for a moment. But the fastest my 04 did was my insane freind behind me on my Z, me on his Monster CBR casually running along at 171 ( on speedo ) when he drafts me and passes me speedo said 174.No one wants to believe that these machines are capable of these speeds, we have both been told by many "Pro's" that we are full of it. and maybe the speedo is off by 25mph I don't know. But I have not pushed it like that in a long time to much risk.
