Why You Need This

Speedometer not acting right? A common culprit is the speedometer cable. This cable connects the front wheel to the speedometer, and over time, its ends can break off, the cable can fray, or it may develop kinks. Any of these issues can lead to inaccurate speedometer readings.

Our replacement speedometer cable will help fix the issue and help stabilize the speedometer on your vintage Honda CT90 / Trail 90. Be sure to select the cable that fits your specific CT90 model when adding it to your cart.

Installation

Difficulty: Beginner

1. Carefully align the drive tab on the cable into the speedometer drive unit.
2. Route the cable up through the proper cable retainers on the factory front rim and into the headlight bucket.
3. Before attaching the cable, apply a bit of anti-seize compound to the threads on the speedometer drive housing where the cable will be screwed on.
4. Make sure that both ends of the cable are securely seated and hand tighten the knurled cable nuts. If using a K5 and later cable, reinstall the speedometer retaining screw with a dab of anti seize into the front wheel.

All new cables need to be lubricated before installation. For speedometer and tachometer cables, we recommend quality motorcycle cable lube or marvel mystery oil and grease slurry. See our Cables 101 video below for more details.
