One or two up they were a handful, you had to use third to pull away from a standstill otherwise the rear wheels spun like a bastard. They were fitted with a big box, like a Luton van almost, on the back. They were awful in a crosswind or passing an HGV and were frightening (brilliant). Fully loaded with a dozen cops and gear they were more controllable but swayed really badly in the corners. Roundabouts at speed were interesting.
