I was driving and the speedo was stuck on 60 the whole way home. Stopped at a light and it went to zero and never moved since. The odometer works perfect but the speedo hardly works at all. I took it apart and found grease all over the cup that is connected to the needle...grease all over everything. Is this normal? Should I grab another speedo, or use a bike speedo?

not trying to steal the thread or anything, but what is the deal if the speedometor works but not the odometor. Is that the speedo or the cable?

There's a good article on Pelican on how to fix that. Common problem.
