I got my first bike (gs500) a few weeks ago after passing my DAS, and have since been riding it pretty much everyday. Weekdays commuting 20 miles or so a day to work, and perhaps 50-60 miles at the weekend.
I've started to develop a pain in my right wrist. I'm guessing it's from using my right hand for twisting the throttle which is not a movement I've ever really done before.
The thing is, when I'm riding the bike I don't feel it. It's only after I'm off the bike doing other things with my hand that I notice the pain. It feels a lot like a sprained wrist. I'm going to stop riding ( yeah yeah I know
) to see if it goes away and then ride again to see how quickly it comes back. I've been trying to relax my grip but it hasn't made a great deal of difference.
Just wondering if any one else has experience of throttle hand pain, and what remedies you might have come across.
