I realize that it is an 1100- I just wrote my reply poorly and wasn't very clear as to what I was referring to- my bad. You seem to have experience with off size tires. I would like to know if the below makes sense to you since I have only done it with one tire.
I went to a tire size calculator this morning out of curiosity and the actual difference in speedometer readings between the two tire sizes according to the calculator is only 0.7 MPH (1.24 km/h). A speedometer reading of 60 mph (96.56 km/h) with a 120/70 18 tire would yield a speedometer reading of 60.77 mph (97.8 km/h) with a 110/80 18 tire. Does this make sense to you? Your experience was a 10 KPH difference. I saw a 3 MPH (5 km/h) difference when I did it as I stated earlier. I am just wondering why the different results. Is there that much of a difference in overall diameter of tires between different manufacturers to account for this discrepancy? Speedometers may be inaccurate but I would think that they would be fairly precise when comparing a before and after result against themselves. Just curious what your experience was.

Without getting into the math of this, since math was never a strong suit of mine anyway, my conclusions have been gained by comparing a 120 front to a 110 front while riding the bike past one of those roadside, post mounted, radar speed checkers, the type that warn you of excessive speed, without any consequences if you ignore them. There are a few not far from where I live, so I have done speedo checks often.
I have used the different fronts (Metzelers) a few times over the years, depending on availability of the 110 size, which I prefer and I have consistently seen a 10 kph difference between what my speedo says and what the radar reader says, with the 120 size on. With a 110, my speedo is very close to the radar, or as close as can be said to be observed without a larger, more incremental gauge. So, in passing one of these things, it is not an exact science, as I look and glance at both radar and speedo quickly to compare, so it may be that the difference is actually 8 kph, or 7, or 9. It is rather hard to tell, at speed on the road, but it has appeared, to me, to be about a 10 kph difference.
Another consideration that I would think could make a difference in comparing readings would be the amount of wear on the two comparing tires.
Since I am currently running a 120 Bridgestone BT-023 on the front (came with the bike bought last summer), I will do another comparo with the 110 Metzeler that I have in stock, once I wear out the BS.
