Default Sticky throttle with heated grips

Anyone have a problem with the throttle getting sticky when the heated grips are turned on? I'm assuming something becomes sticky inside the grip when it becomes hot, but I can seem to find any issues.
The stickyness starts about 1 minute after turning on the grips, and feels a lot like my throttlemeister cruise control adjusted to a low/medium setting.
I can remove my hand from the throttle and it very slowly returns to normal.
It's just irritating and not extremely safe.
Thanks for any comments.
