Installing a heated seat

[willtill]

I am thinking about adding the heated option to my upcoming Russel day long seat build. They supply the seat with leads that go directly to the battery but that will allow it to drain the battery without the key on. My question is, how did you wire yours so a dead battery isn’t possible? I am also wondering if it’s really worth the extra $200. I live in a warm climate and ride year round if I want to. I have a nice firstgear riding suit that will keep me warm but I love my heated grips and can only imagine a heated seat would be nice. What’s your thoughts?

Unless you venture into the colder climates... IMHO you don't need a heated seat. Spend your money on something else.

If you have heated grips and use them then it’s a no brainer. Get the heated seat. I have both and use them. Its all about the comfort.

I can’t agree more!
I love my heated Corbin, and after the first time you use it you can’t believe that you ever rode without it.

That is one thing I miss from my old wing, is the heated seat. If you get it, I think you will really like it.
