Changing gearing on the Tracer GT? Does the speedo need to be tweaked?

Hey there, 

I searched this topic on the forum but I am not sure if there is any difference in how the older FJ's and such needed to be handled compared to the 2018/19 bikes with ABS/TCS.     I think I read that the speedo for the bike reads off the front ABS disc now and not off the driveline, which means you should be able to tweak the gearing and not need any kind of "speedo healer" or anything.    That's my main question - can I tweak the gearing and avoid having to get the speedo reading tweaked. 

I do like the stock gearing but it could move up 1T or so (or up one in the front and down one in the rear) to make it a bit more comfortable for higher speeds and use more of the middle gears (4th and 5th seem like kind of useless at the moment).

@Clegg78 - All models, FJ and Tracer have ABS and TCS and changing sprockets does not change the speedometer accuracy.  I changed to +2 on the rear for more acceleration, I verified speed with a GPS before and after the change, it reads the same.
