My 94 R100GSPD speedometer has just recently started fluctuating from correct to high speeds holding for a bit and then swinging back. Seems that letting off throttle helps. Often occurs as I accelerate from a stop. Lube the cable? Tranny issue? Speedo issue?

Cable and drive issues would slow the reading. Readings that go higher sound like the instrument to me. Do a search on "speedo" here and also in your Airmail. There are several reputable rebuilders available.

Owning an old Airhead is easy.
Keeping an old Airhead running great is the true test.

Regarding the speedo slowing I agree. I have seen that before. No direct input in the forum or tech tips. I have Oaks index through 2002. Do you know if his family is still providing the updated version? Bless his soul...
