Yamaha XV950 Comfort Seat
I had that problem with standard seat on my xvs950 (the custom touring version of yours) I buy a mustang seat from US, cost me almost £450 I think with taxes, but is a vintage style with a backrest, the normal version is something around £350, with standard one, a lot of pain after 60-100 miles. with mustang one, I do almost 2000 miles in 36 hours with no pain at all. you can start take a look here http://www.mustangseats.com/Category/Seats

Adjustable clutch lever for wrist pain?
if you can do something to remove the angle of the cable is a good idea to do it, at this angle your cable may be damaged in time... I think

Problem with speedometer/odometer? HELP!
the law is the same for all companies, I have doubts the law is different in US for speedometers. think about this: a new tyre give you more speed/rotation than a warm tyre. also the tyre pressure can modify your speed. there is also the human factor, you can try to ride with legal speed but you are not perfect so you may go faster with 1m/h. all those things can make you broke the speed law theoretically so, to be sure you are not in danger to do this, they set the speedo to show around 10% more speed than actually you have. that way you are not in danger to broke the law if you don`t want to do it.

Problem with speedometer/odometer? HELP!
sorry, my english is crap, so I try again: your friend`s speedometer is broken. his speedometer should show more speed than the GPS, because the GPS show the real speed and a speedometer MUST show more speed than the real speed with 6-10%. is not your speedometer fault, they are come with this setup from factory.

Problem with speedometer/odometer? HELP!
your speedo is ok, your friend speedo is broken. the speedo should show around 6-10% more speed that actually you have, depending of the tyres worn and other factors. I had an increase of fuel consumption when I cut the oxigen sensor on my bike. did you cut the oxigen sensor when you change your muffler?
