The left (clutch) heated grip on my 1995 K1100LT works great . . . the right (throttle) doesn't work at all. Any thoughts / pointers as to how to fix the right grip? Thanks in advance!

On mine it was as simple as one of the pins pushed out of the connector under the seat. Maybe you will be as lucky.

if power is going in, it is possible to peel the rubber grip off and check to see if there are any broken element wires. Mine had stopped working because of that and it was possible to strip back the broken ends and plait in some fuse wire. A little electricians tape, some judicious application of wd40 to ease the rubber grip back on and all has been well for nearly a year.
