RE: Lance LaCerte - Heated grip size

["Danilowicz, Paul S." <danilps@xxxxxxxx>]

	Hey, Bert.   I see you are waitin' for a blue bike.   Me too !   I'm close, should be here in a day or two.   I'm wondering what "Saphire Blue" looks like in person.   Then, of course, I'll have to check over all the detail problem areas that we've been reading about on the list.  I can't wait to get past the break in period to see how much power she really has.   The demo ride in Florida last March seemed to have some real urge.  But that is so long age that I barely remember many details.
