Tyre size? My speedo under reads 3mph of actual speed, due to different size tyre, if you factor in most speedos over read. Could be 6mph+ difference.

Their Car may read high and your speedo might read low.
Use GPS to know for sure.

I spoke to a few of my friends who used to have DT's and they said that the speedo drive gearing is made to work with the KMH speedo, so i have to change the speedo drive to get the MPH speedo to register at the correct speed. Does anyone know where I can get a British speedo drive for a Yamaha DT125R 2003 from?

Ive just remembered, ive got some supermoto rims being made for my DT and the rim size is the same as the DTX so im not too sure if I sould get DTX speedo assay or the DTR speedo assay.
Its mostly going to be in SM trim when I get the bike back from the shop with the odd occasion i decide to go full dirtbike mode.

If you will be swapping the wheels from time to time, then I would suggest getting the correct speedo drive for each wheelset. Then swapping the drive's whilst swapping the wheels would be a simple task.
