All You Need to Know About Moto-Lita Wheels...

Yep, I've picked up two Moto Lita steering wheels so far on my temporary life over here, one new, one used older style that can use the orginal horn button.

I have no idea if I will actually like the feel of the steering wheel once it is installed, but I do like the look.

I have the Black Leather 14" 3 hole on BE and am very happy with it. I had bought it years ago when they were alot cheaper.

Which raises a question.

I have an original 1969 steering wheel.
It has the holes as above but I think it
is bigger diamater.

I am 5'-9" height and I barely see over the
steering wheel. Maybe one or 1/-1/2" clearance.
I cannot see the hood while driving.

Is this normal? I did install the TRF seat
screws and runners kit.

Dale, did you install the round thick steel spacers under the seat tracks, between the track and the floor pan?

Yeah Paul, I did.

DPO Pedro had the seats flush with
the floor. I order the kits and installed.

Maybe Brit's were taller than 5'-9" back in 1969!

You missed my point at your quoted 6". Bad humor on a typo.
