Good to hear it was a simple fix, hope they replaced the tyre FOC.

i had the same, the wheels were balanced but one of them was buckled. really badly. took it to a tyre fitter and he showed me it on the spinny balancy thingy, not a pretty sight

Technical term there!  :grin: :laugh:

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
