Drive to work

After 3 1/2 years building came to work in Pixy (nickname for her) as the MOT is next door at lunch time
Engine is OK but most certainly needs mapping on the RR as expected. First impression of a windscreen less Striker is its not really any different to the windscreen version! In some respects it's less buffeting but I only just touched 50mph and most was 30-40mph.
Lot less 'twitchy' than my previous (live axled) Striker on the road with less rear end 'crashing' on some of the rougher B roads and I am sure the suspension/ tracking etc is still not quite right so more performance to come from that side
Biggest issue on the drive in (which shows how happy I was) is that I seem to have got the steering wheel set to the 2 o'clock position when going straight ahead which then hides half the Dash2 so I couldn't see my speed or the (low) revs! Easy fix though
