When I took apart my speedo while I was writing that post I noticed that the speedo wasn't seating properly.  It could be as simple as pulling the speedo cable off, loosening the front axle bolt, making sure that the speedo gear seats properly and tightening it back up.

If you do need to repack it, it is still an easy job.  I was worried it wasn't going to work well because the gears were visibly worn, but it's been rock solid since I did that cleaning.
