i have had my 2003 sporster about a month. i'm having trouble with my right hand going numb, after about 5 or 10 miles at highway speed. i'm thinking maybe new grips would help. what kind are good anti -vibe? is it a big deal to change out the grips? thanks

 

If you haven't tried one yet, try something like the throttle rocker. About $10 and will reduce the need to hold on as tight to the grip.

 

I have trouble with my hands going numb also . I bought me a pair of gloves with gel padding in the palm it really seemed to help.

 

I have the same result with the stock grips. I just rplaced them with HD Nostalgic grips. They seem to feel good, but, I haven't had the opportunity to try them out.

 

when i first switched to drag bars my right hand would go numb really quick. eventually it just stopped going numb. weird.

 

i bought some of those "jellies" with the silver flakes/glitter for a retro look, they're hard!

for my heritage, i bought some retro white bobber style grips...very soft! i'm gonna get another pair to replace the jellies.

 

Hmmm, my hands never go numb. Does that mean I'm not driving fast enough? I never ride without gloves on though either.

 

Loosen your death grip or your wrist is at an odd angle. Makes a world of difference.

 

+1 on the loosen the death grip that and a good set of gel padded gloves

 

Yeah, the death grip is gonna wear your hands out faster than ****...! I bought a set of HD Nostalgic grips and haven't been happier...
