Maybe he can get 101 lifts to put some miles on two up...he seems to enjoy riding behind little guys. Having that big bastid ride behind him will tighten his ass up for sure!


Oh wait, you said "toughen up", my bad. Never mind...


BTW I have a pair of biker shorts and they work wonders, GRex is right!

I don't think it will work since it's over 1 mm thick and shorty here won't be able to touch the ground!

Avery, maybe we should lower your bike slightly, seriously.

I plan to put the stocker on for storage(I just got mine, and it is so much better than stock).
yeah - I'm wondering if that's it.

Hey, jackass, do the math. If 6mm is 1/4", then 3/4" would be 18mm. I was hoping to lower the seat 1/4", but instead, the gel seat raised it 3/4". but yeah, looks like that airhawk would raise the seating position, which I don't want.

But seriously, I've been thinking about lowering the bike a little. Don't want to unless absolutely necessary, though. Found some lowering links that claim to only lower the bike 5/8" which is probably the most I'd want to go.

Why not just shave the seat down?
