If my maths is correct, that's just over 2% difference, so at 50 mph that's 1 mph difference, at 25 mph thats ½ mph difference. I don't think that those figures will make any significant difference.
BTW don't think that this 2% difference can only be a difference in speedo accuracy. If she takes the curves wider than you, or weaves while you're riding straight, then this could account for the 3 mile difference in 140 miles. :2tup:
I've noticed a difference in the "going to" & "coming back from" mileage, due to right hand curves (going) versus left hand curves (coming back) or vice versa.
