There are many heated grip available. Some expensive other real cheap. Do a search on Badweb with "heated" AND "grip" you'll find plenty of thread on the subject.

I have some $40 kit on my bike and it work fine.

Kimpex kit from Dennis Kirk snowmobile catalogue. I have on my bike but can't really recommend them.

They're internal, you use your stock grips. Lornce uses them on his S2, he loves them. I just ordered a couple of sets. The price is right too.

I've had good luck with the Kimpex-like grip heaters. The wire on the throttle grip side takes a beating, and will last a couple of seasons before it breaks off where it's soldered to the heating element. It's possible to solder the wire back on, but only once or twice, then you'll need to replace the heating element. No biggie considering the price - of course it'd be nice if they lasted forever, but still : )
