Default Reverse

Has anyone had experience with Motor Trike's Harley Mechanical Reverse
http://www.motortrike.com/trikereverse.aspx. I like the idea of having a cut off switch but know nothing about how they work on an Ultra. I have a 07 Ultra Classic. I'm looking for input please.

The cut-off switch prevents you from damaging the trans if you inadvertently try to engage 1st while still in R.It happened to me once and it worked.

An alternative product to consider is a Baker.

Looks like it is pretty simple to install. I read the install manual and should be a piece of cake to install.
Pretty slick set up, but damn they are proud of there set up.
I know, anything affiliated to Harley is $$$$.........
I have a buddy who FBI'ed his 99 RK recently and didn't get the reverse. I can't imagine owning a trike without.
