..... Possibly?
Since owning the scrambler I have sometimes suffer with a numb hand / pins and needles in my right hand after maybe 5 to 10 miles of riding, I usually get around the issue by wiggling my fingers a bit till the feeling comes back.
I will say that it isn't something which happens every single ride, and I do suffer it in varying degrees of numbness.
Now I will say that I don't put it down to the bike causing the numbness, I get the same sensation if I hold my phone in 1 position for too long (playing games) or even holding a PlayStation controller. I believe it is a hangover from a manual job I had years ago where my hands used to experience high impact repeatedly through the day.
So I'd put this numbness down to something which I'd just have to deal with and accept, however my girlfriend bought herself a Vespa scooter the other week which I rode the 30 odd miles home with zero numbness!! I have noticed since getting back on to the scrambler that it's grips feel skinnier than those on the Vespa which leads me on to asking this ....
Which grips have you used or can you recommend which are fatter than the OEM scrambler ones??
