My Iron and Fat Bob are 100% correct with GPS reading, the 48 and Breakout where a bit off but I have corrected it with the FP3.
There are also plenty of phone apps available to read the speed correctly if you have no FP3 or Speedohealer to fix it. But in most
cases the difference is so small that it is not worth doing that.

I rode by one of those "you speed is.. " radar tailors the other day; my speedometer was spot-on at 40.
There are speedometer, phone apps, I got one when I was curious about the speed of my commuter train (which gets u pto about 70).
But many of the navigation apps, e.g., waze, also display your speed.

According to the radar speed signs my Fat Boy's speedo is right there. Now if they could just make a speedo that does not condensate inside that would be great

My speedo actually did break. After I got it fixed, it still only reads 0 or 3 digits. HD service... what a ripoff...
