Default thundermax mileage

For those of you who read my posts last week, I was concerned that mileage seemed to be off a lot compared to another bike I rode with on a long trip and to the route I had picked.&nbsp\\;I seemed to be very much under what I thought was true mileage readings.&nbsp\\; I rode about 150 miles today with gps synched to odometer.&nbsp\\; I was only reading short 1.2 miles in 100 miles ridden, an amount I can live with.&nbsp\\;

Sounds pretty close, I don't know what some speedo's have errors and some don't.&nbsp\\; Mine is pretty much dead on whatever my GPS is reading.
