What bike is this? Whatever bike it is, simply follow the speedo cable from the rear of the speedo to wherever it goes. It will either lead to the front sprocket or the front wheel.

What are you doing then, pushing your bike around a cul-de-sac hoping to get it to register 30mph? You must be knackered after a ride out Wink

The lack of movement in the speedo is probably due to the lack of movement in the bike as a whole if it's on the centre stand and the speedo is connected to the front wheel.

sit on it on the centre stand and get someone to spin the front wheel by hand very, very quickly

it'll register something if it's working
