DOES ANYONE KNOW IF REVERSE CAN BE DROPPED TO ADD SIXTH GEAR??

I KNOW THIS MOTOR ORIGINALLY COMES WITH SIXTH GEAR AND WAS JUST WONDERING.

I think the gears were spaced out so they could drop it to a 5 spd then with 6th removed, it made room for the reverse gear. I would think you MIGHT be able to replace the tranny with the dirtbike setup but until someone tries (also read "do it and let us know"), nobody will be certain it can be done.
