Thanks very much Lance. I didn't want to be grabbing a big fat grip and now
that I have you again, are the grips one position heat or two like my
Beemer GS? Where have you mounted the switch so it looks sanitary? I've
heard some positions, on some color bikes, look kind of cobby mounted in
some places. Appreciate your help. Am learning patience waiting for my blue
crated one to show up in Colorado Springs. We have a good group of riders
here in Taos and they're lurking in anticipation to see how my new Trumpet
will stand up to their scrutiny. Are you satisfied with your dealer's
service? And where might that be? Best regards,

Bert
