It makes life interesting, been to Kettering today in it, seeing as it's damp i went gentle, but i did realize i have no grip in any gear , kind of annoying but fun at the same time.

Quaife is oki, for road and some track days, but as jimbo said plated is the way to go. If you have airlift on one wheel, then Quaife is not working. Costs is the main thing for most of us
