i read an ebay ad with a motorcycle heart and a sequential 6 speed. it
said since it didnt have reverse some people had a retrofit electric
starter-type motor to drive reverse, and others had some sort of
flip-switch that would set all 6 gears into reverse so that you could
backup easily. he also said it was not uncommon for them to hold these
sorts of races with people doing 6 gears in reverse. sounds friggin
stupid.
