Default Pins and needles in Right hand.

I know that the Sv is vibey anyway but is there anyway i can reduce the vibrations in the throttle as it gives me terrible pins and needles when riding long distances and means i cant feel the brakes very well , not fun if i am filtering.
Any surgestions would be appriciated.

it could be as simple as loosing the wrist strap on your gloves, lots of people do them to tight which cuts circulation

If I relaxed anymore i think i would be sleeping on the tank, but I will take it in to conciduration, thanks Huwbee
You too DaveP, have already noted that, and it does help a little but still get it on long trips.

So if you ever see a black 650s with its rider doing power fists in the air or fist clenching you will no its me

stoner suffers from arm pump, maybe he also grips too tight...

all kidding aside, stompgrips are great for getting the weight off your wrists

I put on some motrax grips which had a lot of flexible rubber on them which did help, as DP said though have you gear around by the wrists as loose as you can as this will make a difference, slight drop of the forearms and all should be ok.
Im talking from experience here btw, i put higher bars on in the end cos sometimes i was getting it after 20 mins riding, but im not you.
That made a huge difference.
