Thanks for the tip Lucky.

I jacked up the front wheel, unhooked the cable and spun the wheel.  The cable spins reasonably smoothly, but intermittently.  It'll spin, then stop (while the from wheel is still turning), then spin some more, then stop again.

Seems like it is the gear.  I'll have to disassemble the wheel/speedo case and check the condition of the gear.  Hopefully it just needs to be repacked with new grease.

I put it all back together and now my speedo is effectively not working at all.

Regarding the accelerator pump, it seems to have cleared up.  I'm still running out the gas with the seafoam in it from storage so it's probably cleaning stuff as it goes through.

Also, I don't have a SOHC, mine is a DOHC
