I knew you were just "joshing", I agree about the weather, we actually get about the same type of weather as they get in Virginia (when I was stationed in Norfolk I used to compare the temps)...we just don't get the snow.
When I had the Classic, I enjoyed having the heated grips, they had two settings warm and "hot"...it was nice to have them when needed.
I tried looking up the heated grips for the Classic and the Tourer and they are no longer listed under the accessories section of the Triumph website...strange.
