Step 4Sit
The stock seat was several inches thick. Your new seat won't be. Figure out where the best place is for your hind end by sitting on the bike. Complicate this with a 3-second self-timer for the photos. Having fun yet?
Go ahead and try a couple of laps of your yard (an obstacle course to rival the endorsement test) in various positions if you like, but let me warn you that the framerails have the friction coefficient of Teflon-coated ice, especially in corners where you really need to stay on the bike. Slide off the rails for the second time in two days. Run over your own foot. Ride back to your work area. Go get ice for your groin.
In fact, while you're at it, go grab a Sharpie and some cardboard, too.
