    broken speedo...anyone know about the insides?

    anyone know if the internal parts of a square standard speedo are the same as the internals of a round special speedo?

    My speedo broke, the little spring was like a great big knot so theres no fixing it. Just wondering if the standards use the same internals, cuz then i could maybe get a standard speedo and swap the "guts".

    Why not just get a special speedo? Someone here may have one, or there's always ebay.

      I was just wondering, I checked e-bay and the only special speedo on there is a 80mph one. There is a 160 standard speedo on ebay and thats why the question.
