I have no advice to offer on the M3W as I have not even sat in one, but I imagine that it might come as a bit of an adventure to find yourself sitting behind a wheel while almost as exposed on a m/cycle..? To be looking to manke it go faster before even becoming acquainted ... Hmm..?

All this from someone who was also a m/cyclist and wonders how he managed to live into his 70`s oldgit

Your M3W looks sophistacated compared to my old +8.. ENJOY.. thumbs


Thanks for the welcome Luddite 😃. Your point about making the car go faster before getting accustomed to it is salient however this isn't my aim here. One of the reasons for buing the 3 wheeler was to enjoy the thrills at sensible speeds which suits me these days. I am though keen to maximise the aural pleasures of the car and to allow the engine to breathe properly, perhaps improving responsiveness - points I should have probably made in my last post. My question is, will the stage 1 benefit me and the car significantly and do people consider it a worthwhile investment? Really appreciate all opinions.
