With regard to kickback through the steering wheel, I had a chat with Ian Parkinson, a stalwart of the Morgan three wheeler club, who happens to live locally, and he told me that another owner of a new M3W had used a VW steering damper to moderate the kickback, which seemed like a good idea. Of course if it can be eliminated at source that would be even better.

I've found the best way to deal with it is to just hold the wheel loosely and let it move around in your hands, good for the straights, but not so good on corners, it makes the car difficult to place, which could be quite useful if leaning on the front a bit! I have to stress that this isn't just a bit of vibration through the wheel, it is violent and very pronounced, making it difficult to hold the wheel.
