Both the speedometer and odometer are digital, they are as accurate as Yamaha wanted them to be, if there is inaccuracy it is calculated by Yamaha to be that way. The speed inaccuracy is not error, it is design, the wheel sensors and especially the VSS sensor signals are more that adequate to generate ± 1 mph speeds. The only inaccuracy that the ECU can't easily compensate for are things like tire size that can vary between manufacturers and tire wear.
I've spent the last XX minutes reading through this thread because I was hoping to hear that some 2013 owner had put his money where his mouth was and ponied up the five Benjamins to retrofit a '14 ECU on a cruise control deficient '13. Seems that still has not occurred or did I miss something?
'Cos where I am, 30 is the normal urban speed limit, and they put these cameras in every so often.
You are far too young to own a gray bike, Greg.
There is a few stretches in town that are notorious for speed traps...... on my ride home - I go through a 3-4 mile stretch that has no stop signs nor lights plus its hilly, but is peppered with cops trying to snatch the speeders, and they do a good job too....Yeah, mebby... Those accuracy numbers all go to hell when you change tire circumference by using a different brand tire or wearing one down to the nubbins like a certain 'Zonie is notorious for.

I found this idea intriguing.
Why would anyone want to "maintain" a 30 mph pace for longer than the time it takes to get to 31? Do you hang around in School Zones all day or something? I really can't imagine riding a motorcycle at 30 miles per hour for any length of time. I think I'd probably fall asleep, fall over, and end up rashing up my bike.
You forgot degenerates, zoophiles, and drunks... I resent that!You are far too young to own a gray bike, Greg.
Uhhhh..... Fred? If you would have for a moment stopped checking out my cute little caboose and looked at my hair you would easily agree that a gray colored bike will match me very well! Al;so fits in with my distinguished nature and high level of maturity.

Is a 14 to 13 ECU swap plug n play?I've spent the last XX minutes reading through this thread because I was hoping to hear that some 2013 owner had put his money where his mouth was and ponied up the five Benjamins to retrofit a '14 ECU on a cruise control deficient '13.

Nobody knows until someone tries it.

Unless someone else attempts it first, MNFJR05 is planning on trying the ECU swap in his '13 with a '14 "A" ECU over the upcoming winter months.Is a 14 to 13 ECU swap plug n play?I've spent the last XX minutes reading through this thread because I was hoping to hear that some 2013 owner had put his money where his mouth was and ponied up the five Benjamins to retrofit a '14 ECU on a cruise control deficient '13.

Gen III Cdn read about 10km fast, which is about 6mph.
