I have a 2013 Street Glide and was advised by a Revzilla rep that the bike's electrical system is only able to handle a Gerbings jacket liner and a pair of gloves. It will not support a jacket liner and pants. The rep found this information out from a chart Gerbings has. They break down each bike and what the electrical system can handle Im assuming not to tax the stator. The Street Glide was voted a 3.5 or something...The last thing I want to do is pop fuses and drain the electrical system and get stranded somewhere. So my question is...Is there anything I can do to make the system stronger to support the jacket liner, pants and a pair of gloves? I know Gerbings makes the Harley heated gear. I wonder if Gerbings dummies down their gear specifically for Harley so customers can use an entire heated outfit. Like DeWalt does when they sell drills/power tools to the 2 big chain hardware stores...thanks in advance for the help

 

My wife and I have used Gerbings jackets, pants and gloves on both an 07 Roadking and a Sportster with no problems at all. We even rode two up a couple of times on the Road King with both of us using heated gear with no issues.
I can't imagine that your electrical system is any less robust than what is on these two bikes.

 

Can't say about your particular bike but my 01 Road King never had a problem and I run everything Gerbings makes. Have both outer jacket and jacket liner, outer pants, 2 pairs of gloves and socks. Buddy has an 09 Ultra and runs most stuff for his wife as well as his own.

 

I have never heard that you could only use gloves. I would tend to agree with sailrider but don't know for sure. I'm gonna keep an eye on this and see what others say. (love my gerbing gloves)

 

I know that we have installed all manner of electrical stuff on our bike. I have heated grips, the wife uses heated gloves and pants. All of it works together no problem. Her heated gear is from Tourmaster though, not Gerbigs.

 

Never had a problem running heated grips, vests, GPS, IPOD, Sat radio etc on the Limited or Road Glide Ultra. But if you are, HD has a High Output system new in their 2014 catalog that may ease your concerns.

 

I'm running jacket, gloves, chaps and socks on my 13 RGU with no problem. Doubt you will run with the jacket above the low setting as that thing gets really warm so you won't be pulling max load.

 

Me & the Ol use our tourmaster jackets on a dyna with no problems. I'm using a inline 15 amp fuse and hadn't blown it yet.

 

Happy Birthday Marine (day after anyway). I've run Gerbing's stuff on everything from 125cc scooters to both of my HD's (a 2011 RK and a 2002 Super Glide). Your bike will support a jacket liner, gloves and pants provided you don't have any additional power draw (ie extra lights, big stereo amps and the like). If you want to run all that clothing for TWO people, you're gonna have to make some choices because that's gonna put it pretty close.

Belated Happy Birthday to the US Marines! My buddy and I ride our bikes ('11 SG and my '04RG) with Gerbins heated gear all the time. I use their heated jacket liner and gloves, while he does the same and even adds the pant liner.
My buddy also uses all this and his wife has the heated jacket liner and gloves when she rides with him. So it should be OK on your new SG. Revzilla is usually good with riding gear/accessory experience/knowledge.
