 Re: Reverse
If u dont ask u never learn nothing. They already have neutral aint that big of a step to reverse is it? That means that they already have a clutch in place. Y does it cost that much more for reverse? Not trying to start a 10 or 11 page my is better than your but mine is more reliable, but mine looks better crap. I am purely asking a logical question a about why it cost so much, but i do like the shirt they should send them out when u become a member here.

 Re: Reverse
Gator tail reverse is a "standard" feature. All of them are built with reverse unless you "special order" it without. I believe pro-drive is the same.

 Re: Reverse
Live in TN not many mud motors here dont get 2 go and ride in a pro-drive or gatortail, manly longtails. which i have been runing for a year or so, and iam about 2 spend several thousand own a mm and i find myself trying 2 figure out what is what. Mainly stumps and logs, and pads. so far iam sticking with a 35lt but i find myself asking is a short shaft worth the money and if so is reverse worth the extra for me.

 Re: Reverse
I'll NEVER go without it again! We all had longtails at one time and we all said reverse is not needed.....but once you have it, you will say to yourself "how was ever so stupid"..seriously. If you can afford it, I would get it! You will not regret it!

 Re: Reverse
Tall transom GTR will run you somewhere around $6800.00 with a 2 year warranty on the actual engine along with a lifetime drive belt warranty.
