Never trust a speedo to give you an accurate reading lol.
Stock speedos can be off by up 10% by law.

Some companies call their altered gear packages "quick acceleration kits".

I would be interested in going to the track, never went with a bike though.

What are the requirements? Safety shutoff lanyard? full leathers or just a jacket? Looking to run my f4i once sometime this year, just looking for exactly what I need.

Also, where in the lane is the best, off center in the groove that cars use? Is a burnout necessary?
