Default antsy!!

just venting here... i got new mini apes on my bike last thurs but havent had the chance to really enjoy them or try them out for very long cause my seat is in the shop being re-shaped and re-covered. im not a patient man and the decent weather is making it worse... ugh... is it thursday yet? thats when (cross your fingers) the seat will be returned to its rightful place, under my butt.

Don't you hate that when it happens... though my bike isn't down... I'm waiting on my chopper front end... still looks like 2 to 3 weeks...

Just had my bike painted and the guy had it almost three weeks... now that was a b!tch...

It'll come... maybe not soon enough... but it'll come... [8D]
