SPEEDOMETER DRIVE
Where trouble is being experienced in the speedometer drive, look for binding in the speedometer cable. The cable must be arranged so that no sharp bends or kinks are present.
The cable support clip at the lower front tank bolt must be arranged so that the cable will lie in a smooth sweeping curve. Twist the clip outward at the front end to prevent binding against the front frame tube.
If this is too difficult to arrange, remove the clip entirely and tape a short piece of split tubing onto the cable sleeve at the point where it will rub on the front frame tube.
