It does sound like cable take off and clean then lube. This will help tremendously.
I would use WD40 to clean, and to lube not much thicker maybe chain wax, or lube, white lith.

If it is humming toons you know and like then sing along.  

Or your speedo is telling you it is too FREAKING cold to go for a ride!!!  

Make sure your speedo cable is in good condition, lubed and both ends are snug. If the humming continues it will likely get worse with milage and then total failure. The internal bushings wear out and the shaft in the bushings starts to bounce around making noise and causing the needle to jump arround. Start looking for a replacement or a repair shop that can fix the small Japanese speedos.
