If its an older one, you can fix it with a drop of green 290 locktite. Not red nor blue but green 290. Using the following link, scroll down to figures 11 & 15. You don't need to take everything apart, just pull the speedo and find the gear on the shaft. Use a toothpick and place a drop of green locktite on the shaft so it wicks between the gear and the shaft. Let it cure and you are good to go.

If it is a newer one, Ida Know.
