Heater circuits for those things can be pretty power-hungry.
The sensor itself is a Bosch, the sensor controller is an Innovate Motorsports LC-1. And your thought is interesting, but when the sensor controller is heating up the O2 sensor the air/fuel ratio display on my instrument panel blinks, which it does every time I key-switch the bike to "ON" prior to starting the bike up.

If the heater circuit is kicking back into operation at idle I'm guessing the display would flash then too, but I'll re-read through the literature to see if that's true.

The bike has an AreaP header system and the O2 sensor is located at the Y where the 2 headers join into 1 (pretty much the first point where it would have access to exhaust gas from both cylinders). The Innovate Motorsports people reviewed my location when I was building the system (back in 2010) and they thought the location was good: not too close to the exhaust ports - not too far away.
