well you dont have to replace the whole cable if you dont want to, you can buy a new speedo cable housing from jegs for like 10 bucks and thats an easy install, as for the cable you can get cable inners where you just put them in the sleeve, but i feel like thats a waste if its just a little jumpy cause usually when the cables bad its really bad and noisy or split and not working at all, from what youre saying just jumpy id just get some graphite lube and make sure to cover the inner of the cable with it and go from there, if its still a problem then, then why not get a some new cable to put in the sleeve, lubes only a few bucks any how.
