With a digital readout, they should be accurate!

Not a chance for that recall Andy. Almost all motorcycles
(and many cars) read high. Been that way for a long time.
I believe they do it on purpose for some sort of liability reason.
My '03 Suzuki V-Strom has exactly the same percentage error -
and that has an analog speedometer. My last bike, a Kawasaki,
and before that a Honda, had the same optimistic readings.
I'm not saying its right, or that I like it, but I am saying that it is
intentional. A 10% error is not that hard to deal with though.
If you are showing 60 subtract 6, if you are showing 50 subtract 5
- I'm used to doing that.
