I have an Attak that has been back to the dealer 3 times for the reverse grinding, locking up. Not happy.

Adjusting Step 1 - Upper Linkage
Loosen locknuts and set the length between the locknuts to 27 mm
Tighten locknuts
Adjusting Step 2- Rear Lower Linkage
Loosen locknuts
Turn the threaded adjuster to decrease distance between locknuts
until freeplay is removed, then turn threaded adjuster back 1/4 turn.

Also keep in mind this is a constant mesh gear not syncromesh so sometimes it won't want to go into gear. Just move forward or backward a foot or so and it should go into gear.

Yes, I'm having that problem. Reverse pops out under any throttle input and makes a horrible grinding sound. Dealer said he'd fix it.

Mine did it until it got adjusted on my boys rtx,and today woodys performance told me how to adjust it,for any future slippage,than he said that that awful sounding of gears grinding,he said was really nothing to worrie about,as he said that the gears are very stout and it just sounds worse than it really is,and if you cant or wont adjust it on the trails,and you still want to use it,pull it into reverse and just hold onto it,until you are finished backing up..1bad442 said:Yes, I'm having that problem.
