Would be a great idea if the blackbird had a speedo cable - haha

The blackbird uses a speed pulse generator and is wired up to the speedo.

Check the connection on the back of the clocks - i managed to loosen mine when i was fighting with the dip beam bulb in the headlight.

Next check would be the earth on the clocks followed by the speed pulse wire itself

Another thought - Have you fitted a HID conversion ? - make sure the ballast box is over on the right hand side of the bike as you sit on it - they can sometimes interact with the bikes electronics.
