Title: Speedometer Question
Post by Trump2Thump on 02/22/07 at 00:24:51

my 88 Savage got jealous when I put a deposit on a brand new Triumph Scrambler and the speedometer quit that very day on the ride home from work.... I have checked the cable and it is fine but I will be taking the speedometer off this weekend and am wondering if this is a potentially easy fix with internal parts readily available from my local shop or if i should just hunt a whole assembly down on ebay.... the lights work on the assembly, but the speedometer and odometer quit..... it gradually started decreasing speed while riding and then would not rise to the occasion after i stopped at a light..... the odometer is completely dead and the speedometer rises just a hair while riding..... any advice would be greatly appreciated and if anyone has an assembly for sale please let me know...... I'm getting another Trump but would never get rid of the Thump......

I've got a spare speedo off an 87 and a spare cable too, I think. Let me know if you are interested.

It could be a stripped or unseated cable. Oh, gratz on the Scrambler. Those look really sweet.
