Speedo cable
Folks, I have fitted my speedo cable but it looks to be Knackered as I know the gauge and the drive both work... Anyone know of a replacement or equivalent that I can use ? Can the inner cable be withdrawn from the outer ?

Richie, I had a new one made for € 105 / GBP 85. All new components and with outer steel tubing. There must be companies in the UK that can do the same for you?
Cheers,

Yes please matey, we can butcher mine and figure out how it all works. ;-) would be nice to have the speedo working, saying that everything else in the dash works !
Checkie came over and re polarised my generator so it is now charging nicely ! And the charging light in the switch panel extinguishes now.

The cable core pulls back through the housing towards the speedometer drive end.
I have one of Brian Asbury's cores heading my way as we speak to try and fix mine. Otherwise I'll have to make a trip to the city to get one made.

Disconnect the cable at the bottom end.
The cable has a spring steel support at the bottom end. The bottom of which hooks into a hole in the end of the outer at the diff end. Unclip it. This then allows you to slide the nut up the cable a bit, and it exposes a washer type clip. Slide that out to the side (mine is a tight fit) and then you should be able to pull the inner up from the top end. This is part of an early British UC cable> I do not have the top end of it, so my instructions are a compilation of what I have, and what Rob said.
