Just mounted a 3.25 x 19 Dunlop K-70 on front wheel of my G-5 with Cozy Euro.  I had been running the original rib tire.  The K-70 has a significantly larger circumference which greatly reduces the speedometer error.  It still reads a bit high, but the tire change reduced the error by more than half.   GA-DK

A 3.5x19 Dunlop K70 is pretty much 100% accurate at all speeds by GPS on my C5. I suspect RE uses the same speedo gear in all their bikes.
