What does this wire do
Hey team,
My speedometer isn't working. I have an '81 Honda CB750. I looked at the drive gear and it spins freely and the teeth are good. I think it's an issue with the cable.
Here's what I've noticed. If you stick a flathead into the wheel end of the cable and twist it, the square peg on the far side doesn't twist. *however*, if you twist the cable housing that inserts into the drive housing, then the square end that goes into the speedometer turns.
So that's what I'm confused about - if you twist the housing, it works. If you twist the actual cable, it binds.
Can anyone explain to me why it's doing this?
