Throttle hand vibration.

Read a few of the threads indicating that it might be related to holding the grip to tight, or may even be a plug issue. What about vibration reducing grips? Anyone have any experience with them?

I have stock grips and I had the same problem for awhile. I was gripping the bars too tight. I have a pair of workout half gloves from Wallyworld that have some padding and those help a lot. I also bought a Cramp Buster, cheap throttle assist that really helps on long rides. Haven't had a problem since. Good luck.

Everyone who owns Kury ISOs say they work. I have some China special POS ones, they don't do chit for the vibration. Personally, the more I ride, the less it affects me, then there's the raise your middle (or other) fingers out, sometimes that helps... another is getting a cruise control of one form or another, that helps me a lot on longer rides... let the hands hang for a few.

It affects me if the heal of my hand is on the grip. If I hold on more with my fingers and have the heal on the grip lightly or not at all then my fingers are fine.
