Hi Jim, usual cause is the at the gearbox end. The speedo cable gearbox uses a plastic adapter to the bike's transmission, this can get chewed up (fairly common on nc30's and other hondas).

Undo the 2 bolts for the speedo cable gearbox on the engine side cover and inspect the plastic part. It could purposely be made a weak link to prevent damage to the cable or speedo unit. Might be worth also fitting a new cable or lubing your existing one, this damage may be caused by resistance in the cable.

It's part 29 in this diagram:
