very interesting
I asked myself the same question that you.
and your solution looks really good
ultimately has the power controller you ask for assistance or not?

Hi, not sure that I understand your question but I can confirm that the system works tres bien. It took a little time, a few kms to settle in. It was a bit "notchey" at first but has settled in nicely. Nice and smooth and easly adjustable. Has transformed the driving experience.
BTW, your 140 looks excelent.i would love to go to the "Trol" but it's just a bit to far away for me

Is an interesting transformation, but in my view loses 140 classic sense.

The maneuvers with the parked car can cost a bit, but in the road is very smooth.
