#91843 JDKoss (User) I dunno, press the button and find out... Junior Boarder Posts: 142 Re:I Can't Feel My Right Hand! 3 Years, 11 Months ago   Crusierbob, Good advice and I stand corrected. We really should wear gloves, while riding all the time for safety sake.   Logged     Coming soon … My tribute to procrastination   The administrator has disabled public write access. #91848 smhowse (Moderator) Book em Dan-o!

I have the Kury Iso grips and throttle boss but what made a big difference was new bars that brought the grips closer to me. (I have Barons Nostalgia bars) Risers can help too. There are nerves in your back that if they are stressed for long periods of time will cause numbness in your hands.

I like the vista cruise, its 30 bucks actually works to hold the throttle but with a twist will still allow increase or decrease speed, flip it off and back to normal.. I used a dremmel to open up the inside of the plastic to fit the kury grips and made bracket to attach direct to throttle housing, instead of the bracket they sell with the kit(seen in one of the tech articles)   Logged     Paul K&N, V&H Powershots, 185DJ, Stock Pilot, 3.25pms   The administrator has disabled public write access. #91866 Midnight1700 (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 239 Re:I Can't Feel My Right Hand! 3 Years, 11 Months ago   I just put the Throttle Meister on my 07 RS. I got the "Heavy" set. Not only does it allow me to rest my right hand, it also helps cut down on the vibration. A bit spendy, but worth it!   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #92198 kena48 (User) 07 Road Star 1700 Junior Boarder Posts: 152 Re:I Can't Feel My Right Hand! 3 Years, 11 Months ago   As an interim fix and due to finacial constraints, I went with the Cramp Buster ($10.95). It works a lot better than it looks. Plus, I can throw it in the saddle bag unless I'm on a trip. I was impressed with it. http://www.crampbuster.com/   Logged     [img size=150][/img]   The administrator has disabled public write access. #92244 newroadie (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 330 Re:I Can't Feel My Right Hand! 3 Years, 11 Months ago   The smaller Cramp Buster for me. You can just turn it out of the way when needed, works great.   Logged     \\[IMG\\]http://i260.photobucket.com/albums/ii12/26curry/DSC05909-1.jpg;size=450]   The administrator has disabled public write access. #92281 sandal (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 1 Re:I Can't Feel My Right Hand! 3 Years, 11 Months ago   Has anyone out there installed a "real" cruise control instead of a throttle lock? I've been looking at a Audiovox CCS100 for possible installation on my Road Star. Saw the installation on a Valk and thought it would be the ticket if it fit.

Not being facetious. When I rode 450 miles, I stopped after first leg and both arms were buzzing like crazy. Then I consciously eased up on grip and didn't have that problem again. Took the wife out riding in high winds and same thing - I was gripping tighter and got the pins and needles again.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #92424 bofish (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 350 Re:I Can't Feel My Right Hand! 3 Years, 11 Months ago   I submitted an inquirey a couple months back on the same subject. Several responses came back and at least one was on Vista Cruise. I asked where to get one and member Clifford had them in stock in Florida. Paid 25.00 including shipping and easy to install. When set right it works great and with a release from your thumb you are back to manual throttle. Maybe better ones out there just dont know about them. Good luck.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
