Like if you had your Cassete on the right side and for some reason wanted to switch to the left hand side, how hard is that?

Well, that is one cassette out of how many out right now? Plus, this guy didn't tell us too much about what his current set-up is either.

i know a guy that did it on his bmx, i guess yuo just have to put ur bb in the wrong way , and turn yuor rear wheele around, so the gears face to the left. this woul also make directional tires be on bakwards , so you would want to flip the araound to .
