  • ✔✔Replacing a speedometer cable on a CT100 motorcycle can be done at home with the right tools and some mechanical knowledge. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:
    Note: Before starting any maintenance or repair work, ensure your motorcycle is parked on a level surface and the engine is turned off.
    🎈Gather the necessary tools:
    🎡Wrenches (appropriate sizes)
    🎡Screwdrivers (both flathead and Phillips head)
    🎡Pliers
    🎡Lubricating oil or grease
    **Replacement speedometer cable (make sure it's compatible with your CT100 model)
    Locate the speedometer cable: The speedometer cable is usually connected to the front wheel hub or the gearbox/transmission and runs up to the speedometer on the instrument panel. Identify both ends of the cable before proceeding.
    **Remove the cable from the wheel hub or transmission:
    **If connected to the wheel hub: Locate the cable's connection point and remove the retaining clip or nut securing it. Gently pull the cable out of the hub, ensuring not to damage the surrounding components.
    **If connected to the transmission: Locate the cable's connection point and detach it by loosening the retaining clip or nut. Carefully pull the cable out of the transmission.
    **Remove the cable from the speedometer:
    **Locate the speedometer on the instrument panel.
    **Remove the screws or clips securing the speedometer cover.
    **Once the speedometer is accessible, find the cable connection point and detach it by loosening any retaining clips or nuts.
    **Pull the cable out from the speedometer.
    **Install the new speedometer cable:
    **Take the replacement cable and apply lubricating oil or grease to the inner cable. This will help reduce friction and ensure smooth operation.
    **Insert the lubricated cable into the speedometer and secure it by tightening any retaining clips or nuts.
    **Route the cable along the same path as the old one, making sure it is not kinked or tangled.
    **Connect the other end of the cable to either the wheel hub or the transmission. Secure it by tightening the retaining clip or nut.
    😀Test the new speedometer cable:
    Start the motorcycle and take it for a short test ride.
    Observe the speedometer to ensure it functions properly and displays accurate readings.
    If the speedometer still doesn't work correctly after replacing the cable, there may be an issue with the speedometer itself or other related components. In such cases, it's advisable to consult a professional motorcycle mechanic for further diagnosis and repairs.
