I usually wait until the bar in my RPM to stop blinking, which is a few minutes. I was wondering if there's another way? I don't want to let it warm up for a few seconds or rev my engine if it's going to harm the engine.

You can hear the idle rpm drop a little when the bike is ready to go. I crank it up, then in the meantime I put on my helmet, earplugs, and gloves and its usually good to go by then.
On my dads BMW it has a bit of an interesting function, there's an electronic rev limiter and it starts with the redline down at about 5k and wont let you go over it, as the bike warms it progressively "unlocks" more revs to like 7k, 9k then the full regular redline. If you try to rev over any of these limits it just bogs down and doesn't let you
Put on all my gear, get on bike, turn it on, wait 5 seconds. Pull onto my street, I make sure to use at least 50% throttle and exceed 10,000 RPM in first. This brings the temperature up really fast.
i suppose you have an older bike? i just let mine about 130 while running in neutral before i ride her

This has to be sarcasm, right?
I like to roll my bike inside and bring it up to my room, wrapping it in a couple of blankets and putting a hot water bottle on the seat. I always make it some hot tea, and porridge, and find that while the tank prefers porridge, the oil cap prefers tea. I fire it up and while it gurgles, it does seem to warm up faster where I let it warm up until it doesn't say "Lo". Sometimes I breathe on it, or use a hair dryer to heat up the oil a wee bit.
I start it, roll it off the front porch. Use the clutch to get it to the road, gently, it's about 75 feet. Then I drive up the road not going over 4k or so for a 1/2 mile. Then I don't go crazy for a few mins.
and by the time I get control on my craziness, I'll reach my destination
such a noob........................my bike wakes up warm since I spoon it all night under the blanket than when it's time to head out she is as ready as needs be
but seriously, I start the bike, fold my cover into the bag, zip up my jacket, put my helmet, gloves on and roll out keeping the RPMs on the lower side
