Hey Das, Thanks! The speedo runs off of the tranny so it is way off.

On my 100 mile run, i was able to use the mile markers and at 10 miles it was about 1.5 off and by the time i hit 100 miles it was 16.25 miles short. So about 16% slower then what i'm really doing.

I really notice the bike's torque now and MAN..!!.. does it pull and pull and pull through the gears!! I LIKE it!!

So to recap what i've done to it:
1- K+N air filter
2- larger factory honda wind screen
3- ROX 2" handlebar risers
4- highway pegs
5- DanMoto free flow exhaust pipes
6- Tires aired up fully 36F/42R
7- 17T front sprocket
8- 39T rear sprocket
9- taller 150/70-17 rear tire(next time i'll find an even taller 140/80-17")
10- frequently oiled or over oiled chain hahahaha

Too bad you're not closer as i would make you a "killer deal" on my Black/Black 2012 CBR250r with under 500 miles on it!! :{)
