This has happened twice now on rides over a few hours. Both times, when decelerating, the speedo stops at a certain speed (70 this last time, 40 the first) and stays there all the way to stopping. Then when I take off, it's like that spot is now zero so yesterday when I was going 40 it said I was going 110.
The only fix is to completely turn off the bike, and only once I've re-turned on the ignition switch does it go back to zero but it goes down in a jumpy manner, not smoothly.
