I think my gearbox in my tourer is fcuked. I got in it to move it this evening and even though the stick appears to be in neutral it is still in reverse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Any one got any ideas before I start thinking about replacing the gearbox????????
Too cold wet and dark to go and investigate now though.
AGH!! HELP??? Stuck in Reverse

Well I hope so, but I'm pretty suspicious that it is a broken selector fork on reverse. The lever doesn't seem to have gone excessively floppy.
