Hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS)
11/27/13 at 16:17:19
 
My last bike was a 3-cylinder Yamaha and the vibration from the seat, hand-grips, and foot pegs was exhausting. After a few hours in the saddle it became intolerable. Anyone had luck wearing glove like these?

Ragnar is it mainly the right hand/arm that bothers you? As JOG pointed out a lighter grip helps quite a bit, but also many riders find more fatigue and strain on the right because it's easier to relax the left due to the lack of the throttle there. I've known a number of guys who use throttle paddles/rests to be able to open your right hand up on longer rides and alleviate strain on the right hand/wrist.  I've only experienced the throttle hand strain once on a long bike run, and it would have made the highway/interstate sections more enjoyable having the option to relax my fingers on the right hand for sure.   Wink
