You might look into a Wrist Rest or a Cramp-buster. They're little plastic tabs that ease the load on your throttle wrist or hand, might help for a thumb problem. They're just ten bucks, and don't hurt the bike if you try it and take it off.

Reply #17 - 12/09/10 at 06:11:40 Welcome back, and as discussed on this forum many years ago, there are simply some intersections and left turns that you have to go past and turn around for; too dangerous for sitting at. Glad the thumbs up is for real, you'll be back up to speed by next riding season for sure. Yeah

Ok ok.. I know I have dodged the pic for awhile. I will see if hubby will take the pic tomorrow. I am hoping we can take both the bikes out for a ride and get some pics along the way to post up as well.
Mick I hope your not too close to a river as this storm is going to bring alot of rain in tomorrow evening their saying.
Yes Piglet, the 5 1/2 inches of hair I had cut, really makes a difference with the fit of my helmet. Then again it is soo good to have helmet hair again.. Wink
