Re: Speedo drive problem
Probably the drive gear is sticking and caused the Clutch meter (tabbed washer) to break/wear down in the first place. If you can get the drive gear off the front wheel, disconnect the speedo cable and turn the gear where the tabbed washer would connect .. chances are it is turning but requires a lot of force and isn't smooth. In my experiences a replacement would be required.
The original drives are made of nylon, the newer ones from brass. I had the same problem and have gone through 2 clutch meters and the New Genuine Yamaha replacement drive lasted me 6 or so months. Thinking is the brass gear can overheat.
