To be perfectly honest the fact that you can do a reverse burnout with the Baker reverse gear just means that it is very solid and nothing I will do will hurt it.
A bunch of places I go are dirt and a couple of times I had trouble backing my bike up.
I hate asking someone to pull me backwards!!!!!!!!!!
Wait. No more duck paddling backwards into a parking spot? I remember 20 some years ago watching a short rider on a gold wing pull up to a parking spot to back in, I was thinking this might get ugly but no, he puts it in reverse and slick as **** parks between two cars.
This could be pretty cool for bigger bikes. I think trikes and sidecar rigs would do good with this.
Funny last week went for a ride in the mtns with 4 others. We parked on a slope and I was the only one that backed in to the curb so I could pull straight up the hill. Everyone else needed help backing up.
