|  What style of grips can halp hand numbness?
I know you're all sick of hearing stuff like this but I need help knowing where to look and what for. I was driving about an hour last week on the highway and both my hands went completely numb from the throttle. I was trying to adjust my right hand palm down on the handlebars and I almost hit the kill switch going 75mph. I think these actions are dangerous and unecessary. I have a good pair of gloves; I don't death grip and I alternate my fingers often. Nothing works I think its just me. My question is what kind of grips should I look for? Gel grips? What brand? What website? and if possible installation instructions. My only pet peeve is my hands just don't work with this bike. P.S. Would the back wheel have locked up if I had hit the kill switch at 75 mhp? I figure it would, but I've never tested it for obvious reasons. |
