So yes your speedometer will read you are going faster then you actually are, but also your odometer will read higher as well so you will be adding 13% more mileage on your bike as well.

Speedohealer and SpeedoDRD are the 2 main correction devices that will correct that.

My buddy had an F4i and did the same conversion. That bike was so much fun to ride. It loved to do wheelies. I was sad when he got rid of it. I did the -1/+2 on my 900RR and it felt good. When I replace chain and sprockets on my 954...I will do the -1/+2 with that as well and go with a 520 conversion and aluminum sprockets. I know the rear sprocket will wear out quicker than normal but I don't care right now. I want to feel the max difference I can with this change. When the aluminum wears out I will go back to steel and see if I can even feel a difference.

A shop will charge you how ever much a speedohealer costs plus install charges.
