First time post! Been reading for a while.
I have a 76 Yamaha XS650 win stock gauges. The speedo didn't work when I bought it, the needle just bounced up and and with the road (tach works fine). I figured it was the cable, pulled it out and it was mangled at the drive end. So, I replace and re-greased the cable..... nothing. The needle stopped bouncing but stick at 0. Just did the drill test (hooked drive end to a drill) with the key on and nothing. I've yet to crack it open. Thoughts? Help? If it's for sure dead than I'll probably do an aftermarket speedo, so suggestions are appreciated. I attached a pic of the speedo and bike (hopefully).
