    Anyone used these? http://www.throttlerocker.com/

    I find my arms can get sore and I get pins and needles in my hands on long journeys, I'm wondering if these might be a good solution....

    I have the Scott Oiler version (the original) and I found it got in the way , so I took it off.

    Sounds like you're gripping too hard, your hands should be resting on the bars not gripping for dear life!

    A friend of mine uses one on his Guzzi and finds it good, but its throttle pull is probably heavier than average! Most arm/wrist pain problems are due to holding on too tight.

    My bike came with a Throttlemeister but I've only used it a couple of times.

    In Cavan there was a great fire / Judge McCarthy was sent to inquire / It would be a shame / If the nuns were to blame / So it had to be caused by a wire.

    Motrax do one, theyre cheap as chips and very popular, so theres definitely a percentage of bikers out there who think they are worthwhile. Does your bike vibrate a lot?
