Like most of us, my speedo is off and I hate that. My previous bike was dead on. So I've sent a mail to 12oClockLabs that sell easy plugin system for correction of speedometer (healer). Following is a transcript of our communications FYI

Vehicle: 2016 yamaha super tenere
Product: Speedodrd

Like to know if you guys have came up with a solution for the above bike. Is ABS a problem? Will keep the super tenere forum updated with your answer, because a lot of people would love a plug and play solution for that bike

Regards, ******

Thank you for the answer. Do you have any idea on a scheduled launch: short, medium term...? when can we expect that?

Hi ******,
because the only sensors are ABS, and the gauge is CanBus, their is no normal signal to intercept for speedometer calibration. We have an ABS calibration system in development, the earliest would be late next season that we may have a solution for you, sorry about that.

Thanks,

My 1st gen speedo was definitely off. The 2nd gen have been as close to perfect as possible according to the radar signs I've ridden past.

It seems to be an issue in some countries and not others. Here in the USA the GEN2 is near spot on accurate.

My satnav says 50mph when the speedo says 57mph on my gen 2.
That's surprising. My Gen 2 seems to be about 1.5 MPH off (changes between 1 or 2 MPH optimistic) at freeway speeds. That's only about a 2% error. Most accurate speedo I've ever had on a motorcycle. I've had cars where it was spot on as is our current RAV4.

Are you using OEM size tires?

My Canadian Gen 2 bike is 10% off at 100KPH. Pretty much like almost every other motorcycle I've owned. I've become used to relying on my GPS for real speed.

Gen 1 owner here, yes speedometer is quite a way off, for me the biggest issue is no cruise control, I hate babysitting that goofy didgital speedometer.

Can any of the non US riders switch to miles from kms and see if the error factor changes? My 15 is very close in both miles and kms.

Apparently My Gen 2 Canadian will not convert to MPH. I see on the screen "MPH" is in the digital area but there is no way I can seem to change the setting. I wonder why.

Why don't you add A McCruse control system to your bike. It all plug and play and works great. Had mine for almost two years now and it's been great.

Because Transport Canada wants it set up that way for our market.

With most tires, the Gen1 bikes were 8% off in mph. We the owners bitched loudly and the Gen2 bikes are typically within 2 mph.

We went thru the speedo accuracy discussion again when the gen2's came out in 2014. and surprisingly, they were accurate. In spite of some non believers that have never ridden a gen2 USA S10, yes the Gen 2 S10's sold as USA models are very accurate. Maybe our brethern at Yamaha USA listen to their customers and others don't. :)

Don't hold your breath! I still have several emails from them as early as Feb. 2012 stating they were working on a plug & play solution.
Perhaps they'll release something a few decades after the Super Tenere is extinct.

People with the Gen2 bikes were generally reporting to be within 1.5 - 2 mph at 60 mph. Changing tires could change the speedo by nearly that.

...except the 3 Canadian owners reporting that there Gen 2 bikes are 10% off. (In this thread and other threads like this.) I don't know if we are an isolated sample size, or there is a difference between the US and Canadian Speedo's, like Euro vs US.

Mine is a 2015 and was 10% off with the OEM, and also the replacement set of tires, which is the reason for my query.
