yet another example of the quality of person drawn to flatties... after i posted that i was in need of a speedo cable one of our amazing members took it upon himself to send me one. he said he had a spare and if i needed it i could have it. he wouldn't take any payment even for shipping. THANK YOU!!! it arrived in the mail a week later, last night I got the new speedo cable in and for the first time in i guess at least 35 years she has a working speedo. i pulled the old cable and it is pretty obvious why it wasn't working. took it for a drive and compared it to my GPS, speedo said 40MPH and GPS said 35. i think my tires are a bit bigger than stock so should that make up for the difference of 5mph?
