Just realised looking under my avatar, I've been a member on this Forum 10 years but still say's I'm a new member, how does that work?
I have bought a heated seat which know has to be activated by the dealer. This will be done at my next service. The heated seat settings that you mention are not on my bikes menu, which suggests that the software is already installed on your bike and perhaps the seat is faulty. In the owners manual the revs have to be a a certain level for the seat to heat up. It will also reduce the heat from the higher level to to the low when riding if the revs aren't high enough
I don't believe that at all. I've heard of a few dealers saying stuff like that (and for applying the up-map for a full system on my old 1260). Well, I know for sure that it was more like 45 minutes for that when I found a dealer who wasn't full of BS.
I only tried the seat on tick over on the stand, I will take the bike out the weekend and hopefully your explanation will work. Thanks
Although my bike came with a heated seat as standard, and I have had any issues, apart from being mega hot, all this talk of 8 hours to update the software definitely sounds strange. I can only speak from my own dealers experience, but when I had the bike in for the first 600 mile run in service, they performed a software update on the bike after the service, the update activated the lower suspension mode, allowing the bike to be lowered at both standstill and on the go at speeds less than 50mph. My point is, this update took about 30 minutes, I was told the process first checks the bike for any anomalies and errors before the updates are installed., so I find it hard to believe that any any software update would take much longer than, maybe an hour, tops, but I'm no expert and it's just my tuppence worth.
