I assume it's cable driven, if not, ignore my reply


Could be the cable sticking in the outer. If it sticks it will get wound up like a spring, when it releases it'll register a stupidly high speed momentarily. Disconnect at the clock end and spin front wheel. Does the inner move round smoothly, or does it jerk? If the latter, it needs replacing.

Thanks for the advice. upon inspection, the speedo cable was rubbing on the brake disc, which is half cut through. i moved the cable away from the disc and now the speedo is doin nothin at all. Could this be related?
