Speedo cable - AHHH!

Still working through all the things I need to get right for rego and discovered the speedo cable is no good on the 50.

The gauge itself is brand new.

This is what I found at the transmission end.



I have no idea where I'll go to get a new cable in a hurry - will have to research or ship a new one from the US. That will take a lot longer than I have as I hope to get rego inspection done next week.

Do I need to remove the transmission fitting as well and have anything done with that end, do i need a new fitting to go on the trans as well as im not sure how the cable works in there or how it connects to the trans end.

Disregard this post, seems like I found a shop. Dropped it on for cable replacement and they seem to know what they are talking about.

Should be back tomorrow.
