My speedometer recently quit working. It just reads zero no matter what speed I am going. Rpm gauge works fine and all other lights on cluster are ok. Just won't count mileage or tell me how fast I'm going. What do ya think?

If it is a bad speedo I have a spare for you cheap. It's off an 01 750 but it should be the same.
I plan on pulling it apart Friday night after work to change the plugs and I will take a look at the sensor and see if it's that or the rotor on the sprocket. Hmmmm if it was the rotor or sensor would the rpm gauge not work? Cuz mine does just no the speedometer.
Check to see if the speedo sensor on the front sprocket is correctly screwed in or if it has loosened. Had that exact problem after a garage changed my chain set. Thankfully it was only that, a pal of mine got home from (another) garage when they put other tires on to find out, when checking some strange rattling sound, that he'd ridden home with front brakes' screwes not screwed in, only put into the holes. :facepalm Fucking careless mechanics.
It's more than likely either the speedo sensor or the speedo rotor. The first is in the front sprocket cover, the second on the sprocket shaft, the 4-pronged thing bolted into the end of it.
Have you changed sprockets recently? It's quite common that that bolt works itself loose if it hasn't been loctited and then the rotor just spins on the shaft.

Yeah, I recently had both sprockets replaced as well as the chain and rear tire. I pulled the speedo sensor and all looks ok. I'll check the rotor next
Ok the speedo rotor on the front sprocket was in two pieces. Can anyone find another one? It's a k2 Gsxr 600. The shop I called wants like 90 for the damn little thing.
