	Hello again folks, it's me... Again! As I've been using my little bargainous 205 more and more, more and more things are catching my attention. At the moment nothing is catching my attention more than the cacophony of noise that is coming from the speedo'...!!! The noise is a grindy, rattly, buzzy head bender that grows when I build up speed and slows as I, well, slow down...!!! It is definitely something to do with the speedometer as when I slow to a halt the needle moves in time to the clicking sound it is making and when I'm at speed the needle wobbles almost in time with the un-holy row. Can anyone point me in the direction of rectification to this problem before my ears fall off or my brain implodes. Many, MANY thanks in advance.

	Most likely to be caused by the cable, still available new from dealers, for less than many curse word takers try to sell used ones for on ebay!

	Thanks for the tip, I didn't think that Pug dealers would still have those bits! Do you know if it's an easy thing to swap over?! I can imagine it being a tad on the fiddly side!!!

	Do the 205s have the comedy needle bounce/wobble that the 309s had? Remember getting pulled over in a mates and being asked if I knew what speed I was doing. Told the chap it was somewhere between 28 and 34.
