I know there is roughly a 5-7% speedo error stock. I just bought a rear sprocket that is +2. Any idea how much additional error this is going to introduce?? Or, more importantly will it be a noticable difference (I should now drive an indicated x mph faster than I do now)...

indicated 65 actual 62.

Where is the sensor for the speedo mounted, on the output shaft somewhere..?

You have to look on the back side of the engine underneath the swing arm pivot
Le me see if I can find a picture of it...

And here is a pretty good thread on how to install a gadget to correct the spedo error...

Cheers mate, from the picture it looks like it's near the clutch housing area...

The total error with a +2 R is very near 11%.

thanks... I guess I'll just add an extra couple of mph to my cruising speed... I just hope this change will help me get the front up a little easier in 2nd gear....

Just move your decimal over 1 place and subtract that amount.

75 -7.5 =67.5 45-4.5 = 40.5

That'll get you close enough.
