Oh all you posh people with your fancy things like rev counters and temperature gauges! They make your lives far too complicated! I just run the Volty until I can safely push the clutch in without stalling her, then ride off.
Although now you mention it I should probably warm up the tyres before attempting high-performance manoeuvres. Maybe I should buy her a set of tyre warmers for Christmas.
My brother (who lives in Calgary, Canada) has a sump-warmer - he plugs his vehicles in overnight so the oil doesn't freeze. I might get one of those for the Volty too. (It gets pretty chilly in Auckland in the winter.)![]()
