pegscraper Posted December 28, 2009 Share #9 Posted December 28, 2009 If you can remove and replace a seat cover from the pan, it wouldn't be difficult to make one from any seat. Several of us have made our own heated jackets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rumboogy Posted December 29, 2009 Share #11 Posted December 29, 2009 Couldn't you modify a heating pad to a 12 volt and just use that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nyjerry Posted December 29, 2009 Share #12 Posted December 29, 2009 I have a massage pad that has a heating pad built in. It's already set up for 12volt. I'm thinking something like that could be fitted inside a seat. The thought of leaving the little massage buttons hidden in it. When the wife wants to stop the ride early, just turn the hidden massage units on. of course you placed them in the right spots in the seat. She might want to go another 100 miles or so. :happy-emoticon: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warthogcrewchief Posted December 29, 2009 Share #13 Posted December 29, 2009 They make something like that already...but I don't think it has a built-in heat feature... I've even heard of them being adjustable from a switch the rider controls or from the engine's RPM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pegscraper Posted December 30, 2009 Share #16 Posted December 30, 2009 What did you use for heating elements & how do you regulate temperature? Gary Buy some 30 gauge teflon insulated wire from mouser.com or someplace, string 33' of it through your jacket (or seat), and connect it through a 10A fuse to the battery. Use a two pin trailer style connector to plug it in to the bike. I forget how much heat it makes, maybe roughly 55W or so and draws maybe 4A or so. It's not enough that it needs regulated. Mine stays on full time. Sometimes I wish it were hotter. But it will make a 40º day feel like a 60º day. Search for "heated jacket" on here. There are piles and piles of threads with more technical information that I don't remember anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideoftheroad Posted December 30, 2009 Share #17 Posted December 30, 2009 That's actually the temperature of comfortable bath water. Gary I could be comparing apples to oranges, but just trying to compare it to outside temperature. Outside temperature of 95-105 degrees is not comfortable.
