Adjust speedometer.

Hello. Glad I've found this bunch of nuts.
First thread. Just registered.
I bought an 05 cbr1000rr with 3100 miles. I'm having a great time with the bike but (there's always a but when you buy a used bike in my experience) the previous owner changed the rear sprocket to a 42, possible the front one also. The bike works great but the speedometer is fast by about 20 miles/h. Is there a way to adjust it other than changing the sprockets back to original ones?
See you soon on the road or the track.

I'd give you rep on that smooth, but I'm repped out for 24 hours..
