Hi guys,
Just recently, I've found my 172 Cup is struggling to engage reverse gear. The collar on the stick pulls up and springs back freely, exactly how it should feel going into reverse gear. But when lifting off the clutch I sometimes find myself going forwards rather than backwards!

Busy Saturday morning
Fitted Battery Cover as recommended by @182_steve . Looks far better, just need an fusebox one now.

First of all, filled in the gap on my Sparco wheel with a horn. No idea how to wire it up but at least it looks far better.
Excuse the mess, missed out on it's weekly clean over the weekend unfortunately!
Also finally fitted a KTEC induction, what a...
