suzuki gs 650 speedometer

[bradley]

I noticed the last time I rode my 650 when I slowed down to turn in the dirveway i noticed a humming noise. Messed around with it a little and figured out it is coming from the speedometer. Put it up on the center stand and unhooked the cable from the speedometer and spun the wheel and all was quiet. Is there any way to take the speedometer apart and see what is wrong with it or does anyone have any idea what may be wrong with it? I would really like to be able to fix it and keep the original speedometer on it. Thanks in advance

I've placed a couple of drops of triflow oil into where the cable goes into the speedo and it stopped the whinnig I had going on. It's been two years now.

Charlie, how many miles has it been since you stopped the whining in the speedo?
You took the speedo off, turned it upside down and added drops directly and it worked, is that right?

TIA,
