It's partly because of where the head tube's at, compared to a Kawi. The seat is a little bit lower than stock. It's kind of like a big-wheel 80. It sits real low in the back, because he steers with his rear end. He doesn't steer with the front. He moves the bike with his butt. It took a little while, but he's come around, for sure." cue I II! n II! _ S • MAY 8, 2002 eN
