Cant get reverse at all. Its like it isnt even there!

Every other gear is perfect.

Anyone any ideas what the problem could be or is it just a matter of a new gear box??

Its probably just a gear selector,a short bar that puts gear in place,sounds like that if its just reverse

does sound like the shift linkage!!

but unless the hondas have the plate in the gearbag, as slinky said, a whole new box itself may be cheaper

prob rollpin has feel out of selector rod that holds it to the selector fork.

I lockwire them for this reason when rebuilding a box
