Sarge, I like your choice of Moto Guzzi. I had a Silver 2000 Jackal myself. Sold it recently. Great bike!

Regretfully, the Jackal is gone without me ever riding it. Why? I was going to hack it but, as it turned out, THE REVERSE I ABSOLUTELY NEEDED was going to cost me too much to have custom-built. Fact of life - with my physical condition these days I am limited to three wheels and must have reverse to operate at all.

Ah well...

There are some good choices for you then: Sidecars on Honda Gold Wing, BMW, or Harley with accessory mechanical reverse or even a Harley Trike. All of them work very well.

Is any one running the Baker reverse or know any one that is? They make two different models. One for the late stock 6 speed and one for the older 5 speed that will all so fit the Baker DD6 that I am installing on mine. They are not cheap but as I get older and when I put my TLE on would give me a piece of mind.

Great thought but, regretfully, for various reasons none of those would work for me. Additionally, aftermarket mechanical reverse units are WAY out of my price range.

I am mainly trying to find out if any one has or knows of any one that has one. I was wondering about the stock exhaust fitting.
