It could be that your tyres are of a smaller diameter than is specified by the vehicle manufacturer. The smaller the wheel the less distance covered in one revolution. find out what size tryes and rims were specified when new and compare the ones on your car

You have a 1991 Ford Explorer and the speedometer seems to read faster than vehicle is traveling How do you calibrate a speedometer?

First, make sure the vehicle has the right size tires. Look on the door plate or in the glove box to find the size recommendations. If the tires are sized correctly, the speedometer cable gear can be changed to affect the speedometer displayed speed. Remove the cable where it enters the transmission tailshaft, count the number of teeth and get a different size gear depending on whether you want the speedometer to display faster or slower. If the speedometer is showing slower than you are actually travelling, get fewer teeth on a replacment gear. If the speedometer is showing faster than you are actually travelling get a gear with MORE teeth on the replacment gear.

How fast can a Zuma 125 go?

My 2009 Zuma 125 goes 55 according to it's speedometer which has a 70 MPH maximum reading. Although I can think of no reason why it should be inaccurate, I have read elsewhere that the real speed is actually 5 MPH slower than what the speedometer says, but I have not done any testing of the statement. It is really suited for secondary roads only, but has excellent acceleration.

Flash Drives have a disadvantage to their hard drive counterparts in that a flash drive's writing time is slower than a hard drive. As such, you will notice a slower upload onto your flash device. Keep in mind, though, that flash drives tend to read data quicker than hard drives.
