Talk Morgan

Thank you all for your warm welcome!!

Although it´s roughly a six hour drive or train time away, to get me to Madrid, I shall probably do it in the autumn, when the weather has calmed down a little.

I am typing this in singlet and shorts, with the aircon. full on, to give some idea.

Of course, August is the hottest month in Spain, so it´s all good!!

To answer Moss´s query, I did in fact strip down and rebuild the MX4 engine and found it to be in very good condition. This together with a brand new chain, made the trike behave like new again.

This all took place in the dungeons of a huge stately home type building in the general area of Greenford, if I remember.

Many owners would gather there to chat and compare notes, plus do general repairs to their various models and years of Morgan trike.

We all usually ended up at the Ace cafe on the North Circular Road. Those people with driveable Morgans, of course.

One member on this Forum asked me to make comparisons between the old and the new. Bearing in mind, my Morgan had a hand throttle, adv./rtd. and air lever all on the handlebars, it probably won´t compare. However, I welcome the new Mazda 5 gearbox. Synchromesh will be a big bonus!!

Enough of this chatter, or I will be barred for over posting!!
