There's a little plastic gear in the tranny where your speedo goes in that needs to be changed. They have different colors for the different # of teeth. Due to tire/rear axle changes, your existing gear has the wrong # of teeth now. I don't remember how to calculate the correct #.

He's got a bunch of interesting stuff there including the speedo gear stuff.
