There are various speedo repair services that you can find by doing a Google search. They can be repaired but the cost of repair may be much higher than buying a good used replacement off of eBay, your magna forum's buy/sell page, or a reputable motorcycle dismantler.

If it's an old V65 then the Speedo has a cable and they can come loose and not be making contact properly. Check the back of the speedo first and see if the cable is still there and if it's loose. If not the cable broke this can happen if not lubricated regular enough.
To test take the cable off the speedo adn prop the front wheel off the ground ( I do this buy using the center stand and then holding the back end down by pushing it down and tieing it here to a fence or bench or whatever) then spin the front wheel fast and see if the cable end which goes into the speedo turns at all if it's spuratic or not existent then replace the cable.

Chances are, YES.

Simple chraging system test:
Start motorcycle
Turn HIGH BEAM light ON
Run 10 minutes or until warmed up good

Remove the positive battery cable

If the motorcycle dies, then there IS a charging sytem failure.

If yes, check the HT lead connection at cap and coil end end to ensure the metal centre core is not corroded and is in contact with the centre pins at both ends.

Then check the coil wires are connected and that there is a 12v power supply to the coil wire connector. If not there needs to be.

To read the serial number on a Honda PC50 moped, follow these steps: Locate the VIN (Vehicle Identification Number): The VIN is a unique code that provides information about your moped. On a Honda PC50, you can find the VIN in the following places: Under the Air Filter Cover: Look on the left-hand side, just above the engine. The VIN should be stamped there.
