after 4 months of sitting dormant i got the bike to run and rode it up and down the road

i also went all out and streetfightered my new tank, TAKE IT TO THE MAX!!! it even says max on it so it goes faster

but...... as i have a new front end the speedo is set up on magnets. I cant take the bikeon the road as it still pretty much in bits and has no MOT or TAX but How can i test the speedo to make sure its accurate? i have had the sat nav on and at 10mph on the clocks the sat nav jumps between 8 - 13mph but obviosly they are crap so im guessing its roughly right

just wondered if anyone else knew how i could test it?

but she's nearly done

Good effort. Nice and safe

Try mounting a push bike speedo on the bike and see how that ties up with your speedo.
