Re: First Minor. Daily drive - winter advice request
Thanks Alex,
Thanks for the info. Attached pictures of my flywheel and clutch. Can’t send a picture of the gear box but it is definitely the 1098 ribbed gear box.

Sorry yes 4 miles direct to work from home base. After reading comments I have decided this morning to take a little detour to make the commute closer to 7 miles. And that’s mostly county roads avoiding the traffic. Too late to change my mind so will look at blocking off part of the rad. Thank you f...
