Are you sure about that? I was sure that I was told the 115 is old enough that it is only a 3 speed. So far as I am aware, it only shifts twice and the gear it starts in is fairly low. I doubt there is a gear below that.

You have to push pedal down all the way and hit the kickdown to go into first, or manually shift it there. R A Bennell wrote: > Then you have not had a really old one.
