My mates got a 6 m/o 1000R... and the heated grips are *****, I've just sat on it, had it running for 10 mins with grips on full bung and there nowhere near the same heat from my HP4 grips...

Is this a common problem, anyone know...

MY16 is not all that when on full blast compared to when I got a loaner GS1200. But a shout out for my Gerbing XRL when its really cold.
 
I'm on my 2nd R and both the old and new bikes' grips are as warm as my RR... which isn't that warm, no use for winter. Bikes like GS1200/K1300S/F800ST they have different batteries (I couldn't run the ST on high heat, too hot) - does the the HP4 have a different battery maybe?
 
Update on this, BNW Glasgow changed them under warranty Wednesday there.... miles warmer...
