Opinions on full manual valve body

I got my Pro Race Cope 727 with RMVB about 6 months ago.

At first I didn't like it - kept forgetting about the reverse pattern ...(Doh!) ..but I got used to it and see the benefits now....especially the 2nd gear take off on wet roads.

Main advice - the ratios are different to a 3 speed manual - so don't try shifting from 2 to 1 at 25 mph....or you'll rip the sprag out the back of the box in a 904.
