Compare the cable route and end fittings before choosing the 24-inch or 29-inch tachometer option. A longer cable is not automatically safer if it creates a tight loop. Honda directs cable lubrication before reconnection; follow the cable maker’s guidance too, especially for a replacement with different construction.
The linked speedometer gear plug measures 15mm outside diameter and 22mm long. It is intended to keep the drive gear clean, not carry rotation to a speedometer. Choose a cable for a functioning mechanical instrument and assess any changed drive arrangement separately.
Inspect the cable for a broken inner, damaged ends and secure engagement at the drive and gauge, then check those assemblies. A replacement cable cannot repair a failed drive gearbox or instrument. Avoid forcing a mismatched end into place.

It closes the drive opening in a suitable custom installation; it does not transmit rotation or convert the instrument to an electronic input. Keep the correct cable for a working mechanical speedometer and verify the opening before choosing the separate plug.
