Answer
revtech does prompt you in their info on the tranny. I would think the mech would know that the speedo is reading off a different gear.
Yes, you do have to calabration kit for the speedo. you dont have to mirror another vehicle. In the direction it will give you the way to do the calculation to set it.

Good luck and happy riding
Mike
