make sure the gear in the tranny is good, and that your cluster is good

Mine was bouncy for the first few days after I changed it.
It got better by itself after that.

give it a few days, if it is still bouncy, check the little white collar that locks the cable in its spot behind the guage cluster, with out it, the cable can loosen up or just fall out

crap inside the hole where the cable goes into the cluster can cause that too....
