This morning was my first ride of the fall requiring heated gear. It was just over 40F when I left the house this morning. I rode the SV650 which has no windshield, so the wind blast went straight into me. I was happy to have the warm heat of my Gerbing heated coat.
I just received the temp controller back from a warranty replacement. The main cord has failed. It was replaced under the warranty without much hassle. I’m looking forward to it keeping me warm as the temperature drops. It’s very convenient to dial up some more heat with just the turn of a finger.
The ride was beautiful this morning. The sky was clear and blue while I was cozy in my heated coat. It was hard to stop riding once I reached the parking lot at work. The ride home was even better with the temps around 70F.
I was thinking the same thing this morning but the heated gear was still hanging up in the closet. &32°F this morning but should warm up into the 60s later today. I keep having connectors fail but found that Radio Shack carries them. Maybe I should complain to Gerbing.
ReplyDeleteWith your windshield, I dont suppose you need them just yet. I had some connector issues as well and had them replaced with a more sturdy one. The connector on the ural gets replaced about once a year the others 2-3 years.
DeleteHmmmm, we are looking forward to heated gear season. Our morning are chilly but afternoon are still trying for 90.
ReplyDelete90s is a bit warm. I'd prefer our 70s during the day and 40-50 at night. Makes it cumbersome to pack extra gear to stay warm after dark.
