Speedo problem?

[Hagakure]

The 'hand' that tells you the speed seems to sway back & forth when it goes beyond 70km/h.

Mech says cable's fine but the readin seems to irritate me like a windscreen wiper.

Anyone ever had this problem too?

Oic...

Riding yamaha tw200.

Bought my speedo just slightly over a year so hopefully don't hafta buy a new one.

most speedo meter works on the principle of a rotating magnet...creating a magnetic field..

a fast rotation= stronger magnetic field...

so if your speedo act like a wiper...only indicates magnetic fields strength are changing fast ...

i suggest u check all the connection of your speedo cable/gears ..make sure that they are properly fitted/tighten..if this does not solve the problem...may be the problem lies with the speedo

Not sure if your bike has the white gear thingy in your front wheel... might be that white thing spoil...

Hi I'm new here.

Both odometer and speedometer uses a single cable, so if your odometer works fine then I think there is no problem with the cable or any gear assembly connected to your front wheel. correct me if I'm wrong
