A local lad who is "half man half car" (wheelchair bound) has been building a sidecar rig up for himself with adaptions. He is looking for a pushbutton shift system for his rigs gearchanger. Think dax had one a while ago in kitcar mag. And lastly how much would he expect to pay for the system
Cheers

Seen a remote gearchange device from some australian company a while back. Will hav a look for ya. The same company have also devised a 6 (yes 6) stroke ducati engine. Mad as hell!

Try proshift on 01332 294994, they had a stand at Stafford showing such a system on a bike engine

if you or he is intrested I have built them for a couple of pepol on hear befor if thay are around I am sure thay will give you/ him an opnyon of if thay are any good.

also if you search previos posts you should see the topic that I started on them.

Jim and David crombi (from this sight) both have one at the moment. I know that Jim fitted his to his car and was happy with the result there should be a review kicking about in the archive somewhere. David crombi has only just got his due to some problem I had posting it to him. He seams happy but will see how he feels about it when he gets it all set up.

in the last u2u I got from david he said

"Like the unit it is very neat and well made, must be the most travelled unit in GB."
