Marks do a speedo correction box, you need to see how much yours is out (use a gps) and they can supply one to suit. (there are 3 off the shelf units available also) Cost is around 200 bucks. Or, try a heap of different 60 speedos...... I have 285x75x16 on my 60, and speedo is near spot on, just a little under (around 2 k's at 100 kph)

Mine was about that much...

Had it made at my local sparky while i waited.

It screws into the g/box where the speedo cable screws in and the speedo cable is then screwed into the correction box.

Had to fit it for the engineer.
