Nah, I'm good without an assister wheel on it - the rack's quick enough to collect things without too many dramas.

Reasonably sure that depends whose driving it  :tongue:

That wheel looks like a 'forklift' modification.

Yes it does depend who's sawing on the wheel, doesn't it Dave 'Fishtail' Morris.

They're either a forklift mod, or a trialer mod, or a disability mod.  :grin:

As the weather has dried out the BMW has been pulled back out.

You replace the input and drive seals while it was out?
Also there is a breather hole on the back plate on the top right. Make sure thats not blocked as the pressure can can lead to premature seal failure.

Does it look like it?!

During testing yesterday nothing seemed to be leaking, so it'll be fine.

Yes, he really is barely moving here, unlike the wheels
