Wonder how the shifting works, like push straight for each gear change?

Likely yes it should shift like fwd controls maybe with just forward and back shifts up and down. Using the 1500 it may also have reverse.

Shifter appears to be cable operated. Prolly has a modified foot shift arm, connected to the cable, and the other end of the cable attached to the floor shifter between the seats. 1 forward, 4 back, + reverse.
VERY reminiscent of the Cushman 3-wheeler I built in high skool....the one I lost a finger to. :rant:
I found a Cushman cart, two front wheels, one in the rear, with complete sprung/damped supension. The local Yamama shop had a 125 Yamama enduro bike someone had brought in to have work done on, but never came back for it after they fixed it. Bought it for $50. Cut the steering head, and rear suspension stuff off, and welded the frame, with engine(and fuel tank) still in it onto the Cushman frame. Ran a chain from the engine to the rear wheel sprocket. Dang thing would run 60mph down the road....on 8" wheels/tires! GOt a couple of pics of it somewhere. I had the regular foot shifter pointed straight up, and you had to reach back to grab it and shift. One day....I missed. Grabbed the chain instead.
oh2: It hertz to this very day..... After that, I built a proper shifter with some clevises and chrome tubing. :whistling:
That's a neat 3-wheeler, but I don't think I'd pay that much for the plans, and video. I bet a lot of us here are prolly intelligent enough to figure it out on our own, iffin we wanted.k:
