Out and about in Kent II

60 odd miles in a spare hour or so today. Great fun once she’d warm. She a bit hesitant pulling away at low rpm when cold so that’s gone on the snagging list! God she sounds good when provoked and the acceleration is impressive.
Observations: 1) Got quite a heavy clutch compared with the previous Westfield. Noticed it when I had to filter in traffic for 5 mins due to road works. 2) MPG is not that impressive given I’m taking it steady at the moment.
Nice to get out in the sunshine.

Mark. I got married atop blue bell hill so is one of my favourite places...
Kev: yes both the roll bar and the windscreen are higher than normal. One helps with motorway speeds and buffeting and one helps when you end up upside down at motorway speeds! I’ve got used to it now and don’t really notice.

Let’s hope you don’t try the upside down bit
