      Are you a DIY person? If yes, then you'll know why it has gone kaput; reason being the speedo meter cable connecting the meter & the front wheel.

      If you're not, take it to HMSI ASC

          If you're economical then just find out what's the issue & fix it; if you've lot of money, then start with replacing the cable & even if it doesn't resolve the issue then go about learning. If you don't know what to do with the money in hand, then you can try even ABS on Activa, forget alone the digital speedo

          My personal opinion - waste of money, time & effort unless you're an automobile engineer!!! Why touch something that's stock?

              @aargee ... ABS lol.. brakings are all good in activa and however this is not even a 150cc or 200cc motorcycle ... so braking are good with stock..

              how much will a digital one cost or say can i get speedO of specific bikes like FZ or somthing bit compact ?some please do specify cost

              @hunkofgals.. well only the speedo..

                then its the speedo cable fault
                either it might get cut in between somewhere
                or it might be loose
                do check it with a mechanic

                and about digital speedometers
                its just waste of money
                its my opinion

                but hear somone fitter Pulsar 135 speedo in dio

                for some 3000 or so

                    You can buy a GPS navigator instead of wasting money on the digital speedo. GPS navig. will give you "exact" speed and other stuffs.
