I am looking to replace the black shift knob on "MotorTrike" reverse kit. Is the shift knob threaded or glued on the shaft? If it can be change, what is the thread size? If anyone here has switched theirs, I would much appreciate your feedback.

When I did mine it was a Champion reverse Gear similar looking to the Motor Trike version and could be made by Champion??
Anyway I had to cut off the shift knob thread the shifter shaft and put on the shift knob that I wanted to use.

Yep.....Bet its Loctite on the treads a vice grip or a channel lock plier should loosen it, that's i if you don't mind chewing up the nob.....Or caveman style, Heat it ...That will brake the Loctites grip...

Got a good strap wrench? A bit of heat and a good strap wrench may get it off??
Or if you dont care about the knob just cut it off and put of what you like??
Have you contacted Motor trike and ask them the best way to get it off??
Pic of the knob on the shifter.....for the benefit of those like me.
