Seat arrives last nite, I'm happy, life is good.

Stick it on the bike, hmmm, don't think I gained SHIT in the lowering dept!
PLUS, I have to reinstall the HARDWARE. okk, do it in the am

THIS MORNING, I INSTALL THE GODDAM HARDWARE, and the seat won't SNAP IN!!!!

(at this pt let me say to all those of you who are ready to hit REPLY and
tell me "you shoda gone to Castroville na nah n nAH!" well RIGHT! I'm going
to ride to Castroville in COLD ASS WEATHER on a bike that is so potentially
dangerous if I have to wear more than the minimym of clothing, since I
can't move around well to get my foot down and any extra material between
crotch and seat makes me even FARTHER from the grounD!!! THEY HAD THE
DIRECTIONS: CUT THE BASTARD ***LOW!!!*** so i can WAIT til sspring, or I
can ASUME they can FOLLOW DIRECTIOSN!)

Anyway, I jumped and pushed and pounded and swore but that fucking seat
wouldn't snap in, no WAY! SO I CALLED THEM. apparently, there's a big foamy
gizmo that is STUCK on the old seat that works like some washers, well
THANKS FOR THE DIRECTIONS!!!! (there are no direction s in the box, none.)
I had CRANKED THAT HARDWAYRE for 20 minutes (only had a wrench, and the
damn things were on w/lock tite, really), so now I UNCRANK THEM. TEAR THE
LITTLE MFers off the OLD SEAT, SCREW THE WHOLE THING BACK ON.

BAM! BAM BAM BAM!!! (still wont' SNAP!!!)
I take off my jacket, start HOPPING ON IT LIKE A CHIROPRACTOR!~

**BAM!)) BAAMM!!** ( i am so pissed).

You know what I had to do?? I had to GET UP on the bike, BACKWARDS,
and FUCK IT LIKE A TWO DOLLAR WHORE!!!!!

(now listen, when that damn thing snapped, and I realized what motions
i was doing, at that very moment, I knew I wouold have to post this. I
had no choice...)

well, I RODE the damn bike to work, and I almost think that I am TALLER on
the G D thing NOW than I was with the STOCK SEAT!@ and you know WHY?????
Well, the SEAT MAY BE LOWER< but the CROTCH! the place thaat's the LOWEST,
THAT IS NOT LOWER!!!! so this think about COrbin's making the seat lower,
YEAH, but that DOES NOT HELP SHORT RIDERS! NOPE! NO WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(!!!!!!!!!!!!)
