Burning sensation in upper back when riding. How to cure?
I have an 07 SG with stock bars, seat and forward controls. For some reason today while riding I got a strong burning sensation throughout my ride. To the point I came home after about 2 hrs.
Im about 5'8''. I know Its my preference on bars and parts that go on my bike.
Anyone have any suggestions? What size bars have you guys gone with to help this? I want to go with 12'' apes most likely. I plan on doing long trips in the future and this would be a ride killer for me.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Just a thought, if you have been riding that same set up for a wile with no problems,, you could have hurt your cervical spine in your neck, you work with your hands,lifting? you could pinch a nerve and only have pain in your arm and not even know you hurt yourself, ask me how i know! just something to think about. i found out when i went to the doctor for something totaly different and he ask me a general how am i feeling question, told him burning pain in my left arm, sent me for a mri and wamo 3 herniated disc, going for surgery soon. oh yea the pain is killing me!

Well I do have a bad back and neck from the Army. But this hardly ever happened before. Maybe I did hurt it. Who knows.
To the guy who mentioned floorboards. Dont have them. Bike came with forwards.

Yup, all the way across my back. Top portion. I feel fine now. But it was painful. I had to let go of bars and kind of lean back on passenger seat to relieve some tension. Well, tried too.

Suggest you do a search of this section, use heritage bars as your search term. I went with aftermarket bars on my Ultra but didn't need them, the stockers were just fine. I almost took my 07 RKC back to the dealer after my first 800 mile day because of the exact same pain, pout heritage bars on and viola no pain. I even have heritage bars on my Dyna now to eliminate any chance of pain. I also have a 12 inch scar down my back from a broken back and subsequent operation so I am a little paranoid after not walking more than 10 feet for a year and a half.
