And my Corbin is in it's box with a potential buyer...just waiting on payment. Good luck Doug, hopefully it'll all work out and you'll love it.

A Kourier has to establish space on the pavement. Predictable law-abiding behaviour lulls drivers. They mentally assign you to a little box in the lane, assume you will stay there, can't handle it when you leave that little box.
Y.T. is not fond of boxes. Y.T. establishes her space on the pavement by zagging mightily from lane to lane, establishing a precedent of scary randomness. Keeps people on their toes, makes them react to her, instead of the other way round.

I am feeling better about it today, just a little pissy about the whole thing though, I was just hoping they had a little experience and produced a great product from the start.

Yeah, their fitment (well for TL's anyway) has been way off for as long as I can remember, but most folks manage to grind and whack away at them until they do fit. Mine was super comfortable if I sat bolt upright, only problem was when sitting bolt upright my hands were about a foot away from the clip ons. Luckily for me, TL corbins have great resale value

Sergio at Corbin told me to grind down the bumpers to fit the seat and that it won't void the warranty. Damn, for $409.00 it should fit.
He was very courteous to me.
