Sounds like the cable is bent somewhere make sure it doesn't do any sharp turns.

maybe some one has been plying with the calibration,try pulling the speedo head out,then pull the cluster apart & checknothing is caught then there are to tags you can adjust.
there is a link on here but i don't know how to show it,or you can bring it to wanneroo & i'll have a look.

mine started bouncing, now it's snapped, lol.... went and bought a "universal" cable, is 'bout 8" too short
isn't too bad tho, can guestimate speed within 5-10kms from the gear/revs
