I'm running a 3 rib with a super shifter and pretty much have to adjust for reverse every time I ride. 1st-4th gear's shift fine. Anyone had this problem or an idea on what the problem could be?

this may or may not help, but i set my shift linkage in the reverse gear! ive always heard set your linkage with the trans and shifter in the reverse gear, if reverse is rite the rest will be. this has always worked for me :wink: but there are variables, like shifter or linkage wear

Thanks, that will prbly help. I'll try that tomorrow.
Also, this evening I noticed that the shift shaft sticking
Out the nose cone has a lot of flop in it. Could it be a bushing wore out
Causing some of my headache ?
