/me wonders if you're thinking about the reverse actuator **** on the F-1 equipped 355's, 360's, etc.. Small stub on console, while paddles control the up/down shifts.

The lever will work in all generations. From what I've heard, your shift **** won't screw on, but if you like the look of a 3rd gen ****, you can find someone selling their ****, or you can buy the one provided by Kartboy. http://www.allwheelengineering.com/b..._class=KB-M004
Or you could buy a universal ****.
