Default speedometer calibration question

hello-

my friend owns a bike and would like me to ask you some quesitons.

He is in need of a shop, privately owned, who can test his speedometer and make sure it is accurate. He got a speeding ticket and needs to verify that he was indeed not speeding

anyone?

thank you

sebastian

Columbia, so gaitherburg isnt too far away at all!

In all honesty, I thikn his ticket says 100 and he wants to see if he can get it down to 85 or somethin. He is looking at 10 days in jail which I think is ridicilious, dont ask me why he is looking at jailtime Im not sure.

Thanks for the shop, I'll reccommend it to him

Usually if you have to serve jail time for something like that you can request house arrest and they will let you do that instead.
