Grip & Seat Warmer Intermittent Issue?

Post by chazyim »



2010 - 28,000 miles
Hello, This is my first Wing I bought a few months ago with 25K miles. This is an addition to my 4 other bikes as I've been riding street bikes for 44 years. On the way home the day I bought it, I realized I made a HUGE mistake. :cry: I told myself - I should have bought a Wing many years ago! I'm pretty sure a Wing will be my last bike!
OK, the issue I've been noticing from the day-1 is that grip & seat warmers would heat up normally but either one or both of them shut off after about 20-30 minutes into a ride. But then next day, they work but shut off again - and repeat. Is there a thermal overload sensor or auto-circuit breaker that shuts off and then turns back on when no load? I'd appreciate your input. Thank you.
