I got the gel gloves but still went numb. I changed to the iso grips with the gel gloves and that helped but still went numb at times, mostly right hand. Got the motor mounts tightened, that helped alot. I read here awhile back about tight gloves giving problems so i took the gloves off- and that was the problem, much better> I guess the gloves were to tight, need to get bigger ones. The throttle boss drove me nuts, to get it on the grip so it was useful for the highway it was in the way during city streets. It just didn't leave me any room on the grip without being in the way. I ordered a magnetic cruise from kuryakyn, anxious to see how that works if they ever get them in.

As a matter of fact I do have CTS. I tried using the wrist braces the VA gave me while riding but couldn't get the gloves on over them. The braces worked but it felt wierd not wearing gloves. Kinda like riding with no boots, just sneakers. Wierd!!
