FYI
Got an '06 KLX250 with a stock size front tire.
Out of curiosity I checked my speedometer yesterday using my Garmin ETrex 20 that displays mph to 1/10th. Turns out my speedo reads fast by about 10%.
40 is really 36, 80 is really 72, etc.
Speedo says it tops out @ about 90, actually just a bit over 80.
Good to know, I guess.

While I haven't been that fond of most factory LCD/electronic instrumentation, replacing that dinosaur, antique, analog instrument panel on the '06/'07 with a Trailtech Vapor was an extremely excellent upgrade. That stuff on our '06/'07 models looks like the same crap that was on my 1974 KE175 Kawasaki. There's a real weight advantage also when you dump that ancient history. The Vapor and any similar units also give you digital water temp along with several other very useful data points.
