Cool Reverse Cable

Had all four buggy's and a couple of wheelers' out last weekend ( only our second ride this year ) 25 mile ride . The recently Rehab'd 3203 did well .
Only breakdown was BMS King Cobra with 22 hrs decided to snap a reverse cable at the end of the day , unloading off the trailer . That's what I get for lubing my cables after every ride . Parts listings are a little sparse for the BMS .It has the SYM engine with external reverse , and is supposed to be an upgraded version of the Carter Talon . Hope I get the right cable first time around . Anywho , at least now I can disassemble and service the reverse unit .

I feel like the reverse cables snapping is common. Seems like it depends how much they get used but I've seen some last 2 years some 5 years. I see people post it quiet often. I myself just received a new reverse cable for the hammerhead.

not that I can think of, those gears in the reverse box are heavy duty, just grease them up and there ready to go.
