[ST] Are Triumph speedos really that bad?

[David Earl <dlearl@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

"I say the speedometer makes a very good match for the Triumph fuel
gauge and most
likely, the odometer as well."

Of all the bikes I've owned, only the BMW K75RT had a more accurate
speedo. 3-5% VS 10% on most. Being concerned as to innacuracy re:
Warranty issues,  I checked the odo when I first bought the bike and
took it on a 700 mile trip. Then as now, after 6K trip to British
Columbia, my odo is spot on.
BTW, after said trip, and filling, riding, filling, riding, etc
3-4times/day for 2 1/2 weeks straight, my fuel gauge actually works. 1/1
after a fill, 1/2 @ 100-110 miles, fuel light and red mark at 175-180
miles. Knock on Wood.
