I got mine from Sprocket center when i bought my chain
SpeedoDRD Speedometer Calibrator - HONDA - Sprocket Center
I can vouch that it works well and that installation took less than 3 minutes

Connects in the harness next to the battery....
So you can find a place somewhere under the seat.
Follow the wire up from the speed sensor.
(Which is next to your REAR cam tensioner, same place where the GROUND wire goes.)
This was before I cleaned up the wire with some tie-rips.

You don't need em really ... they are to correct the speedometers natural error of showing a higher speed than you are actually going. They are almost necessary when you do tire changes or gear swaps. I know when you do a higher 2 teeth in the rear you will be off about 8 miles per hour at 60mph on your speedo.

Does the added Two teeth on the Rear sprocket really effect the speedometer that much?
So you're saying If I'm running a 16/43 that my speedometer will show 60 But I'll be at 52? Or it'll show 60 and I'll be at 68?

So if the speedo reads 60 you are really going 54. There are other factors that come into play but on a day to day basis it works pretty good.

I had to put 145 on the gauge to keep up with cars (doing 120kph).
Swapped back to 15-41 now, because 15-43 is ridiculous.
$75 dollar isnt too bad?
for me the euro-dollar exchange rate works in my favour

Well on my set up (as yours might be different) the added 2 teeth along with the factory speedo error (though the odo is pretty much dead on stock) turn out to be right at 10%.
So if the speedo reads 60 you are really going 54. There are other factors that come into play but on a day to day basis it works pretty good.

just for an update . bought and installed the drd healer in about 3 minutes ( one minute to find the mounting location) . ... programmed in -12.4 for +2 in the rear and bam works dead nuts accurate . kinda nice to know exactly what speed your going , and not run up the odometer . i had 15/43 gearing for about a week and put the stock front back on . way to crazy in first gear, and 6th was non existent going 75 on the freeway .
