Anybody ever checked the accuracy of the 1050 tachometer?
The latest Cycle World has a sidebar on tachometer accuracy in their 600 comparison. IIRC, the 675 was a consistent 7% optimistic. Most of the bikes were high, at least near red line. Seems wierd, I know they could be spot on. What is the advantage of lying to the customer? Fewer warrenty claims?
