Consumer Description

SPEEDOMETER ON 2006 KAWASAKI 900 LT CLASSIC IS 10 MPH OFF. CONTACTED KAWASAKI AND THEY SAID ALL BIG BORE MOTORCYCLES ARE OFF. I CHECKED MY MOTORCYCLE WITH RADAR AND MY OWN CAR AND IT WAS 9-10 MPH TO FAST. I ALSO CHECKED OTHER MOTORCYCLES IN THE SAME CLASS AS MINE AND FOUND THEM TO BE FAST. THIS CAN LEAD TO CITATIONS FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT AND POSSIBLE ACCIDENTS. *JB
