because when I bought this bike I remember it saying 650 miles on the bike..... but there is no way that I have ridden about 2700 miles since that.... because if its in miles then I have to do an oil change.... like now :P

So you are saying its miles?

Ummm, yeah, that's in miles. If it was in KMH, it would be the dominant text on the dial like this.

If you're really in doubt, run your VIN number through a checker. It will tell you which country it was manufactured for.

The VIN itself only tells what country the bike was built in, not what country it was sent to.
