Tyres vs Speedo


How much do 135's through out the stock speedo by,
how much slower would it be?
would it be fair to say %10?

Because the og tyres that would have been originally fitted
are a much taller tyre.

---------------

Drove past a unmarked speed camera car (ones with the
black boxs on the front) this morning and I would have been
doing but 42-3mph-ish

I normally sit on 40mph all the time and, haven't had any
trouble with speeding fines... Just curious to know, if i should
be worried

Wow, that is an old photo from DB & HVWs - late 70s or early 80s. I remember in later issues people saying it couldn't be real because of the orange smoke and the front wheels not pointing straight ahead. Their response was that it was so obviously a set-up shot that they were surprised about the comments. lol

I got a hold of different size tyres in the front for a bargain so my speedo is off too it's a 195 50 14 i think that or 195 55
anyway it's off by about 10% when i'm doing 50mph on a high way it shows 55mph
and it says 80kph on a bike speedo i installed with the magnet pick up cable tied to rear cv lol
