Hi folks, my two cents into pot,
recently bought a Monster 620 s.ie, during first ride noticed, that speedo drops dead at times, checked over and found that speed sensor was allready "repaired", dont ask me how did i missed that when i purchased it (probably was too excited about bike ), anyway, looked on ebay first, found one close enough for eur 30, but it was second hand, so was not sure how good it will be. After short thinking removed my old sensor and decided to repair it. Top of the sensor was soft enough to remove with knife/screwdriver, after then cleand it out with small pick, removed old wiring leftovers with soldering iron, found suitable cap for sensor, cleaned down and shaped wiring loom, soldered wires to sensor in right sequence, sealed on cap, left it dry out ,fitted and... voila, works as a dream + saved myself a few notes. Few pics of my job :
