I used to have an old 2 stroke motorcycle that would run really well

backwards.  I discovered this by accident whan it backfired at a stop sign

and then idled really fast.  Surprised the hell out of me when I let the

clutch out!  Later I found that I could do it anytime I wanted by bump

starting it backwards.  Don't try this at home, folks!
