Is it just me, or does anyone else reckon that heated seats are next to
useless. When I get in my car (without heated seats) in the middle of winter
my arse and back feel cold for about..oh...20 seconds...the seat is,
afterall, very good insulation. The rest of me is freezing but not my back
and arse...and considering the seats take a fair while to actually get
warm...what's the point??? I have tried heated seats and this only confirmed
my opinion. It would make a little more sense on a motorcycle since without
a heater like you have in your car, it would provide at least some heat
source for the blood supply. Still a heated vest would be far more
effective.

Cheers Joe.

Just like Grandma used to say, "Hairy hands, hairy arse".  Not that my hands
are *so* hairy, nor is it the hairiest part that comes it contact with the
saddle - ugh!

I'm surprised however that not even BMW seem to have come up with a heated
motorbike seat - the technology is commonplace in cars now, including
over-heat cut-outs; no cable to disconnect when getting off the bike either,
unlike heated jackets, etc.

A sheepskin cover would last about 0.5 days around here before being added
to a wino's winter comfort pack.  Not to mention what it would smell like
after a night out in the rain (the sheepskin that is, not the wino).

Most days, but I've yet to spy another GTS in about a year and nine months
of so doing.  Have I been spotted??

BTW FLUFF:  My point is that I don't mind humour, but those like me who
subscribe to a number of diverse mailing lists see the same jokes (and the
same lame belated virus warnings) come up on every list in turn which gets
pretty tiring - every man and his dog is doing OBL jokes these days.  If the
FLUFF is at least vaguely motorcycle related then perhaps it stands a chance
of being new to the listers.  One more thing **PLEASE, PLEASE** do not
include THE WHOLE OF include the original message in your reply!  It's never
necessary under any circumstances, and it makes the digest in-digestible . .
check those e-mail settings . . thanks!
