I'd say it's more likely to be wheel bearings, but it could be the drive I suppose. Don't bother with second hand ones off ebay if you need to replace it, they're £23 new from a dealer.

Welcome to the forum
![]() The speedo drive could need a good clean and greasing. Would also be worth while having the speedo cable checked also for any damage and also getting the cable lubed. Idealy get it sorted ASAP. It's a pain in the backside trying to guesstimate speeds without a speedo (I've had to do it three times on the Bandit & Aprilia). |

Thanks for advice. I think I'll get it booked in & get the drive changed before the speedo packs in completely! Think it must be the drive causing the noise as it only kicks in after about 20mph. On the plus side, my tacho seems to have started working for the first time since I've had the bike. Was told that it was beyond repair, but it seems to suddenly be ok. Gotta love them mid nineties ducati electrics!
