A Sigma Sport bicycle computer is more accurate than a stock speedo, and uses wheel diameter, so it stay the same even if you change gearing. It's also a lot cheaper than a speedohealer.

There's still some work to be done but it's going well. We've got the brake lines, chain, spocket, rear sets and some body work done. Tomorrow we should be all done with the body work
BTW, I'm having a blast! I'm working outside, in shorts, on my bike, you can't really ask for more! Thanks DrHall!!!
WOW!!!! The bike is really, really ,realllllllllllyyyyy good looking!! That's nice!
Glad that you guys have some great time with each other!
Thanks for the pics!
Looking good dude... I see you went with the SBK lines. I haven't ridden mine yet but with that same setup it's got the hardest squeeze of any brakes I've seen.
I'm planning on doing some painting on mine this week and maybe I'll even sneak in a ride up and down the street.
Word of advice: If you change the exhaust, leave the servo motor hooked up.... when disconnected it will throw the ECU into idiot mode and combined with a power commander can cause fuelling fuckups that will nearly blow your engine up on the dyno, then you will have to spend $150 on a new servo motor because you destroyed the old one trying to figure out how to jump the wires to fool the ECU only to find out that it's actually smarter than you.
That's what I heard.

I'm starting to wonder if that was part of the problem with my 06 1000RR at the track last year. It fouled the plugs first try in the morning, on a cold day. I'm sure they had the bike sorted out for racing conditions, but the servo motor is gone. I'll have to check over the wiring harness to see if they did some sort of "bypass" or jumped some wires together. The FI "light" is on all the time on my LCD when the bike is running.

What kind of bodywork is that and how do you like it?
They are the E-Racing ones. I'll write a review on them later.

Thanks for the advice, but I really think I'm going to stick with the stock system..... We'll see.
