Legal implications of replacing the speedo

[Straymonolith]

When you replace the speedo, and then sell the bike; how do you verify the odometer reading?
Let's say my odo is at 10K, I replace it with one that has 2K. I couldn't really sell it as a bike with 2000 miles on it and the buyer would just have to take my word on the actual milage. So what's the deal?
Anyone know?

well back in nz when you changed the speedo you had to go into where you get your mot /warrant of fitness, ect with your old and the new one, they would take note of the old mileage and the new one and leave a message on the computer system that the speedo was not the orignal speedo.
and that was it.
im not to sure how it works in the u.s. but id say it would be similar

AFAIK, you just note on the title when transferred that the reading is incorrect.

+1, I just did that with my old Chevy pickup, had 5.7 miles on the speedo, 66K on the truck itself.
