Did some guy from your neck of the woods not write a song about MoK?

He was from across the water but does have a house not far from me ,one of his nine,we know when he's due a visit because a car turns up with two very big guys in it and parks outside the house.He still comes up to visit that wannabe star poet from the Scaffold. I haven't seen them for a long time they came into the local around the time he was going through his divorce.When I spoke to him I said Macca,do you think you will ever go down on one knee again.he said please don't call her that her name is Heather.:eek::oops::oops:

Yes he did I remember him buying a Classic and having an extra fuel tank fitted so he didn't have to stop to refuel on the drive up there;) That was when Lynda was alive,a girlfriend's brother in law used to jam with him and has some cassettes of the sessions.i tried to get an invite up there to shoot as it was overrun with rabbits but of course Lynda wouldn't allow it:(:rolleyes:
 
The problem I seem to have is that a comfortable position for my foot/ankle is resting on the lower half of the pedal, this gives me pain. If I put my foot completely on the pedal ie further up, then my foot can be caught up on the underside of the brake pedal, scary in an emergency stop!. Seems an unnatural position there too. Tried all seat combos too.
If you picture one of them there house hold rubber wedge type door stops...one of them fixed to the pedal, fatter bit at the top, sounds like it would improve things.
If it's not adjustable then I might well knock something up. Even the Doris says it doesn't feel right for her either.

Have you got the seat height right?

Yeah, I've messed with every combo. I think my leg/ankle is too accustomed to the driving position of my 110 tratter. The 38 feels like the pedal is too low in relation to the brake pedal and too parallel to the floor. I might knock up a wedge or two until I find one that works then remove and bend the pedal to match then remove the wedge.
I get real gip on longer journeys but not got one of them for a bit. I use cruise a lot which helps.

Feels natural to me. I suspect it is just what you are used to. I always felt the Defender seat didn't go back far enough and the Bbpost was certainly too close for my shoulder.
