Title: heated grips
Post by: dude412 on April 28, 2013, 06:20:16 PM
Just got back from Texas. My 2012 ran flawlessly. On the last leg of the trip I spent the night in Joplin, Mo. I had ran in rain periodically and was using heated gear and the grip warmers. I noticed when I went to shut off the grip warmers the switch wouldn't move so I used more force to shut them off. Later that evening I tried the switch again, still alittle resistance and thought I smelled something hot. I decided on the last leg home the next day not to use the grip warmers. Anybody had problems with theirs and I'm assuming the warmers are covered under warranty. Oh, I did have one other problem, a ticket for 84 in a 75 near Wichita Falls and by the way I got into town and saw a C14 police bike hidin in the tree line.

You ain't livin right, brother.  3 of us got a warning from a Texas State Trooper for 83 in a 75.  We must have done 90 for an hour on the 80 mph bypass around Austin.
