Speedo Healer V3.0
The speedometer on the CBR1000RR uses a speed sensor that registers engine rpm and what gear you are
in and uses this information to calculate your speed. From the factory
the speedometer error is about 6% on the high side.
This means if you’re traveling at an indicated 60 miles per hour. Your
actual speed would be 56 miles per hour. That’s not the end of the world,
in fact it could even be a good thing because the speedometer is telling you
you’re traveling faster than you are actually going and that could save you a ticket.

The Speedo Healer is a device that allows you to re-calibrate your speedometer readout to
take into account for this error thus making your speedometer more accurate.
But were the Speedo Healer really becomes useful is if you are considering a gearing change
because changing the gearing of your bike will increase the speedometer error.
The Speedo Healer comes in two parts. The Speedo Healer V3 and the Honda II harness to
connect it to the bike. They also have a very good website that has all the information you
will need to calibrate the Speedo Healer.
To install the Speedo Healer you will need the following tools, a ratchet with a 6 inch
extension, a 5mm hex Allan head socket, a 10mm Socket, a 14mm socket and a small flat head screw driver.
So let’s get to it, you will need to remove the seat, the tail fairing, tank cover and raise the gas
tank for this installation. Please see the Power Commander USBIII article for those procedures
if you are not sure how to remove these components.

The Honda II connector comes with two loose wire's because the harness can be used for
diffrent year CBR's and the VTX models.
