Try unscrewing it from the back of the speedo and shooting some lube-y stuff down the tube. And Matt, if you're out of warranty, try these guys... http://www.paspeedo.com/ Title: Re: Ducati. Quality.

I fixed my gauge from doing what yours is doing. Easy fix. Stupid tabs that hold the needle servos tend to break. 6 out of 8 broke on mine. Title: Re: Ducati. Quality. Fail.

Title: Re: Ducati. Quality. Fail. Post by: DarkStaR on August 09, 2008, 08:46:05 PM where would i get new tabs from? dealer? Can't. You just have to make due with what you think might work. Electrical tape worked for me. I'll help you out when you're ready to fix it. [thumbsup] Title: Re: Ducati. Quality. Fail.

Yeah, it's been off for a couple months now -- idle was pretty much pointing straight down...
