So after 20,000 indicated miles, her bike might only have actually done 19,000. Thats quite significant isnt it??

Excep that over longer distances it will average out between you because you will have both been through several sets of tyres from new to worn.

No need to go through complicated maths or averages to get a big difference between indicated and actual mileage. My speedo cable broke at 14,827 miles and now, some 3,000 miles later it's still reading 14,827

I bet you've never broken a speed limit since then either! Ideal!

I never look at my speedo, until then orange light goes on, then it's time to fill up.

I only quickly glance at my tacho when the rockers start to growl around Ten grand.

Dr am i normal?
