It's going to be a percentage that the speedo is off, not a constant MPH. So I would recommend using a pace car at say 50mph or 70mph. Let them give you a thumbs up at a pre determined speed so you can see what the bike is doing. Turn the difference into a percentage and you'll be able to calculate any speed on the bike.

I hope this makes sence. It's easier to do then to explain. Bike speedo's are off anyway so a chart would have to be make/model and year specific.

If you need any help let me know.

Be sure to use a pace car not pace bike. Chances are that bikes speedo (although it may be stock) is off by as much as 14%.
