After lunch, we tried to verify again. This time, I am asking my friend to ride at 90km/h and I try to keep up. The speed indicated on my odometer this time is around 107km/h average.
So, if I were to follow them (the CBX team) in convoy to other places, I will have a hard time to keep up with their speed. Those bikes can easily reach 140km/h on highway.

It would be nice to be able to correct the speedometer, but I don't think you can. I presume it to be designed for a 21" front wheel.
You could always add a small digital speedometer that uses a magnet on the front wheel. Several of us have done that.
A GPS / Satnav device would also do the trick.
