It could be the cable, or the speedo itself. It's hard to tell sometimes. Both 
might benefit from a bit of lubrication.

It's hard to lube the cable, but you can easily add 2 drops of oil down around 
the speedo input shaft. It has to go AROUND the shaft, not down the square 
center hole.

Of course you have to take the speedo out to do that.
