Had that problem with a bike I use to have...it may not be the speedometer but the cable going down to the front wheel. It could be worn out or stripped.

99 900RR have the speedo driven off the countershaft sprocket pick up sensor....check the wiring down there and make sure nothing is corroded..and it could be the battery as well, or a connection on the back of the guages

if your speedo is not registering start with the cheap stuff and replace the cable. you can get a replacement for like 8-14$. Its an easy fix all you have to do is get behind the instrument cluster and take off the old speedo cable and install the new one. scale of one to ten diff 1!!!!!
