Other than you need to ditch those ****ty Dunlop 208's off that thing, its a damn nice bike. I really dig those frame sliders. I definately wouldn't recommend putting those Avons on your bike. Every single Avon I have sold, the customer was pissed at how badly they performed. For less money you could go with Michelin Pilot Powers and be a lot happier.

6'1" baby!

I know where you are going with the question. In it's stock configuration, I was comfortable and in the new configuration it is fine too.

However, I don't ride it in the rain (or snow), I don't ride it when it's below 50 degrees, I don't commute with it, I don't carry much more than my keys and wallet when I ride it and the road at the end of my driveway in sunny Meadow Vista, CA looks like this:

Professional rider, closed course, your results may vary.

p.s. I feel the Avons work well for my application and I got the front tire free. Do I not look happy?
:D

Hey irace22, I've got the same bike. What do you think about that seat? Is it as comfy as the stock? I REALLY like the feel of my stock seat, but I love the 2-tone of the one you've installed. :D
