Help, Im not really feeling my valver at the moment
I dont know why - it does need the rear brakes sorting (doesnt stop very well at the moment), as well as the exhaust (so is down on power and suffering from vibrations through the shell where its rubbing against the engine mount), but it just feels a bit... unexciting.
It might be because the tyres (F1s) are too grippy, so its not playful enough, but it might be because I live in essex and they seem to think that straight roads with a few roundabouts are what we want. Im really hankering after another RS Turbo again, despite having a budget thats way too small.
The handling on the RS was pants compared to the valver really, as it wasnt adjustable in the bends and the limit was hard to read, but the power (i.e. the turbo) and noise (lovely 4" magnex/turbo whistle/dump valve) was what made it fun. Theres just nowhere in Essex to enjoy a valver properly and in safety it seems.
If I got everything fixed then I might feel better about it, but I dont want to throw money at it if Im still not going to love it and will still be thinking about selling it.
Ho hum, therapy over...
