Anyone else have their overide switch go nuts and start affecting the forward gear too? Haven't had a chance to look at it yet, and didn't want to take it apart at the campsite because I just knew I'd lose an important piece (just my kinda luck).

Temporary fix was duct tape, but looking for something a little more permenant and professional looking. (wasn't my fancy duct tape)

It's one of those things when you unload it and ride around it was fine. But when someone borrows it and brings it back, doesn't say anything. At least it's something minor.

Thanks guys, couldn't rember how to do the override thingy. Looks like I have a reason to go ride. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
