I am trying to Iron out all the little problems prior to my steam test. Had a lovely little trundle this morning down the lane. Haven't a registration so couldn't head to the pub :-(



Best wishes

Very nice. Loved the synchronised foot stomping. Think you might want to tighten up the steering chains as you are wandering a lot.

Next you need road tags and a steep hill!

I think you are right on the chains - the timing also needs checking as the seemed steam on both sides.

Looking great, have to agree on the chains, I was stunned at the difference one link made on my Agri, went from a wandering nightmare to almost formula one steering, OK so thats a bit far but its so much more relaxing to drive now. I wasnt to add a set of adjusters when I find a pair that will suit.
