Guest Hodgy Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 Sounds like the classic signs of a speedo cable giving up.You'll see the cable going to the centre of the front wheel, unscrew it and see if the centre part comes out Quote
Tango Posted May 28, 2012 Posted May 28, 2012 Need to know what bike it is really mate....but at a guess I'd say that your speedo cable is sticking and snatching. A bit of oil down the cable may sort it....but it's probably an indication that it's on it's way out..... Quote
