Well I was driving in my motorcycle right behind my parents on june 10, 2012 when I noticed that they were speeding, I brought it to there attention, my speedometer said they were going 80, but my parents stated they were going 75 MPH. So we went for a test drive when we got home I stated to him drive 55 MPH for about two miles and I will be right behind you sure enough my speedometer said I was going 60 but he was going 55. Then I tested it with a GPS device and the same thing happened. On monday june 11, 2012 I called yamaha and asked them about this, they stated that there is an allowable difference which is 10 percent. I would like to know if there statement to me is valid. One of the reasons I am concerned is the slowest possible limit on a freeway is 45 MPH here in ca. What if I am going 46, and a police officer pulls me over for going 40...who would be responsible for the citation?
