I've read somewhere that there is a vehicle called the TRX 125, which shares a similar motor but has 5 gears, if I could get one of those engines things might be different. Unfortunately it was never imported into the UK.
That was a 4-wheel ATV. Some had the Cub-type slant engine and others had a vertical-cylinder engine. Not sure if the slant-engine ones were ever available with a 5-speed transmission...
