Check the fuel consumption ...

... by all means, but not until AFTER you've sorted the speedo

The one on the 1200 is much more accurate than that.

Within about 2mph - according to my GPS.

I usually get about 38 mpg out of mine.

About 55 mpg since the 12000 mile service. Best ec=ver was 61mpg (last tank before the service). The 12000 mile service transformed the engine so whether it now uses more fuel because the engine management wants more or because it's more fun now is open to question.

I regularly get 200+ from my 1200GS, this is usually sticking to the low 80's on A & B roads.

I did get from Edinburgh to East Hull one one tank, 243 miles and got 20.7 litres in at fill up. So I'd say anything from 45 to mid 50's mpg.
