 I'm not a fan of the toggle switch and do like infinite adjustment, but honestly, a 4 position control would be fine for me too. I did however have some previous experience with installing a Heat-Troller knob in the left switch housing, so bought some Symtec grip heaters and wired them to a Heat-Troller. What I like about this set up is that I can adjust the heat w/o taking my hand off the bars. Easy thumb reach. And I can see the LED at night, so I can tell where it's at, level wise, not that it's a big deal. Pic of control knob -  Instructions for the FJR, basically the same except the knob needs to be in a different spot due to the space available inside the housing.

Now that you mention it... Yeah! Rode mine a few hundred miles last weekend. Have it apart in the garage right now fiddling with some farkles... And just to *TRY* and force one of the so-called "hard starting problems" I've been turning my ignition key switch on and off a whole bunch, starting it and only letting it run for a few seconds, sometimes only a minute, etc., etc., etc. Haven't had it anywhere near a battery charger, either... Damn thing keeps starting up immediately, over and over and over.  Normally I wouldn't abuse a bike this way, but hey, it's all in the interest of science, right? But since it just keeps starting and starting this is gettin' embarrassing...   Dallara ~

as far as heated grips go...just like I installed on several previous bikes....I went with the Symtec kit....grips can off easy with a compressor,,,,a few eastern beaver plugs and male/female connectors.....and viola, connected up to the stock wiring harness nice and clean and ran a GPS / SAE 2 prong connection too. I used this simple Hi Lo round rocker and put it here...it worked for thousands of miles on my strom (and 2 other stroms  )

Didn't you announce your shared jealously and love, last night? And then you said something about liking licking, this morning. Come clean, Pluric; Did you paint your bike blue? .
