Finally thought i was getting somewhere.

Post by Montygti »

Thought i was getting somewhere on my Bandit 600 trike and was just going to take it for a test ride before i strip and paint but ive made one total bollox up. Ive used a bevel box to convert it from chain to shaft drive. It moves but one massive problem. Its goes in reverse. Does anyone know if its as simple as just flipping the relaint axle over or have i just cocked it up completly.
