Who makes good heated grips for the S3? I have been looking for them and can't find anything for some reason.

Triumph make them but they are expensive.
Instead I opted for heat pads last year. Cost me $55aus ($41.00 US) and took a day to install. They work really well. You get a toggle switch for HI - Lo & off. I installed the toggle above my above my binnacle on the backing plate that comes with the fly screen. I have to turn them off regularly as they get too hot.
The only complaint is that the left side does not heat up as much or as quickly as the right side. The reason for this is the right side you fix the pad to the twist grip which is plastic and the left side is the metal bar. I've improved this a little by first putting a a shrink tube on the bar heat shrinking it for a tight fit and then putting the pad over the shrink tube.
