GPZ 1100 speedo inaccurate

My GPz 1100 B speedo ( all in one dash) reads less than the actual speed.
Needdle moves, so does the counter, but it reads substantially less.
Anyone with a similar problem, or any suggestions for fixing it?
I have been looking for a new or used dash, but no result so far.
Thanks

Are you running standard wheel sizes, with correct profile tyres :?
Another thought is, are you running a kawasaki speedo drive, or has the bike been fitted with something from another make :? I believe the ratio's are different, or does it rely on an electronic pick up :shock:

Thanks for your hints, however the bike is standard in all wheels tyres and speedo drive, and the error is a lot. So, cant figure it out, I ll have to dismantle the whole lot and check.
My question was whether it was a known problem on this model.
Cheers
