How many heat settings does the deluxe heated grips have. I thought there was only three and off. I read a review the other day and they said the grips had 5 settings.

It may not be obvious, since there are only 3 led's, but if you look more closely you should notice that the led's also reduce to half-brightness too. So, here are the 5 levels:
- All 3 led's full-bright
- Top led half-bright and other 2 full-bright
- Top led off and lower 2 full-bright
- Middle led half-bright and bottom led full-bright
- Only bottom led full-bright
Thanks, I thought that maybe the case.
This is the first bike I have ever had with heated grips…on high I can not keep my tender little hands on the grips…some may differ…..Calvin comes to mind...
This is a real sucky system for us guys who's eyes will not focus up close on bright objects. In fact my best focus blurs all of them together. I never know where I'm at with temp till my fingers are on fire or freezing. Just keep pushing the button till my fingers are not cold or hot. Thanks for explaining this for me (US) Horn Blower. Enjoyed seeing you in Fl. Looking forward to Franklin NC.
Ive had better heated hand grips. On high the throttle side is much warmer than the clutch side, or vice versa. I really need a ride!!
Plus the stock positioning of the heated grip switch is not the best. You have to take your throttle hand off the throttle to make a change. A thumb dial on the handlebar or something nearer the clutch side would have made more sense.
I just went to the dealer and sat on one. It is not too bad of a reach to use your left hand.
That's what I thought. With gear on and a full face helmet riding along on the highway or back road that reach is a reach. It annoys me because the heated grips I added to the DL650 had a simple dial I could hit with my left thumb. There could be a much better position for the button.
When my hands are cold…I would do a back fit to turn on the heat…….sure better than NO heat!!!!!
apply the go cruise or whatever that throttle lock is called and push the button I think it is super easy to use!:icon_lol:
It is letting you know that the battery voltage is "too low" and will not let you turn on the heated grips yet. After the bike runs for a minute, the blinking should stop and you can turn on the grips.
