Speedo Going Crazy
On my way to the dmv just now, hit a speed bump and now when the Speedo goes over 45 it goes all over the place but when it drops to 45 or below it's fine. Going to check it out tonight, just wondering if it sounds like the gauge went or cable is going. Never had one go out where it only worked half of the gauge

Mine was doing that.....and I removed the cable from the outer jacket and sprayed the bejesus out of it with white lithium grease and put it all back together and no more bouncy needle. I did this about 6yrs ago. Works great.
