Does it taller tire fix speedo incorrection??
Just a thought if it will fix speedo incorrection or not if you put 205/55 or 65 or 70 x 15???
Someone mentioned berfore that it may, but am not sure does it taller size (70) fix that or not??

My tire is the same size as the stock motorcycle tire. It's a 205/65/15. Others with the 70 series will have to answer you on that.

When I put the 200 Metz. on, it was closer, I think it would be close with the 70 tire, it all depend on how far your speedo is off.
I have a 1800 final with the 205-65 and my speedo is off by 10% and most guys say theirs is off by 10% with the stock 13 final and a stock tire, you figure that one out

I don't think it corrects it completely, but it does decrease the error. The 205/70 is definitely taller than the dunnie. Going from the Kumho, which is shorter than stock, to the Grabber, taller than stock, I was surprised by the little "You are going this fast" signs. Turns out, I'm much closer to what my speedo says now. Be aware though, this is only at 30-35mph speeds. The error is going to be greater at highway speed.
