What's a BOSS? Why didn't you use the speedo before you changed the "boss"?

  what was the differance in the two bosses,  was the new boss shorter, so the variator closed more, so the belt would go to the top of the variator, I had to shave 1mm. off both sides of the variator to get the same results,. my belt is 24 mm. wide and the variator was 25.5 wide , now it is 23.5 wide , and the belt go,s to the top of the variator pulley now,.  it lowered the RPM by 500 to 1000 rpm at speed ,. my steed is the downtown,. 300i just passed 40,000 km.

Your speedo is optimistic like most scoots. Do the boss alone and you will be at an indicated 35, but a true 30 or 31. Rejet the carb for more fuel at WOT as well and that will get you to around a true 35. To get higher you need to get past the rev limiter in the cdi. There's tutorials on here and elsewhere to do that or you can buy a true unrestricted one on eBay.

so spend a few bucks on eBay for an unrestricted one that you don't need to cut. That way you can also put it back to stock after if you ever need or want to - something you can't do if you cut the one you got. You're looking at less than 100 bucks, somewhere in the 40 to 80 range plus shipping.

And as for speedo accuracy, trust the gps over anything mounted to the bike. It's the gold standard, and even if the gps is messed up, it will fall to work at all before it becomes as inaccurate as most scooter speedos.

If you have any iPhone there is an app, iBikeMoto, that will record your max speed and average speed on a trip, plus a bunch of other data.  It's free. 

You won't have to watch the GPS to see what you're traveling at or when you hit your highest speed.
