    I'm not quite sure if they did the valves or not... I guess I should have them checked... and I'll check the carb sync myself...

    and I'm 5'10 170lbs and on the narrower side... just the seat hurt towards the middle... I suppose a wider seat would have spread more of the weight across a wider surface... are the corbin seats any wider... (or does anyone make a wider/better seat in reality)... and what about the footpegs... anyone ever rigged up some forward pegs or anything on the kat?

      The corbins are almost twice as wide at the rear of the rider seat, about as narrow at the front, and with the denser foam, it means the weight is spread across a much larger area, including part of the upper-thighs. Makes a world of difference... no artificial prostate exams.
