you could always ride with one hand on the exhaust pipe

then alternate hands to regulate the overall temperature.

Heated bars would be great. Came home last night at 10.00pm and had to be chipped off the bike. Wuss's live in Auckland as well. Now that will generate some comment, wont it!

I've had heated grips in the past and didn't like them. I have small hands and they make the bars hard to hold. I also had to use a 'lighter' glove to feel the heat. Could be because I have poor circulation in the fingers.
I now wear summer gloves year round and add 'rain-off' gloves when wet/cold, works for me.
The internal bar warmers might be a good way to go. Be comfortable, makes for safer riding. Cheers.

Wouldn't own a bike with out them... not sure how they would work on a scooter... 6v - 12v I think you can get 6v not sure.

Anyway they make the ride more comfortable therfore more enjoyable...

My brother has some of the oxford hot grips on his bike. So naturally of course i called him a pussy. However I ride to work at 6:15 am and wouldn't mind some, but i cant get any as a result of my loving brotherly comments
