How warm do the seats that come on the electra glides get?

 

Rode Across Northern Wisconsin / U P Michigan. Put down 600 miles that day. 9-5-08, Temp was 40 deg at sunrise, high for day was mid 50's. I was wearing levi's and chaps, and my butt was cooking.

 

High is unbearable for me, but the bsr loves it.

 

Cant wait to try mine out.

THe UC SE is schedule to be shipped from the factory on 11-03-08. Just in time for the cold N.E. Ohio weather. DAMN.

 

never had heated seats or handgrips they are awsum.

 

Wearing jeans and chaps, I can only use the seat heater on low for about 15 minutes, then I have to switch it off, Wait 5 minutes and turn it back on for another 15.
ON High, it's on/off every 5 minutes. High is too hot !

 

My butt is one thing that I've never really had a problem with being cold, but those heated seats actually warm it up a bit too much. I've turned it on a few times, but end up just turning it off after a while. The heated grips have been kept in the off position also, but then I'm wearing a heated jacket and heated gloves, so I doubt that the grips will serve me any purpose in the winter months. I have a feeling that they will come in handy during those months that it dips down just a little cooler than I anticipated for the day, and don't have heated gear with me to fall back on.
