Default numbness

After riding for awhile my fingers start to go numb and my palm gets a little sore. I ordered gel grips will this help? Anything else I can do to take care of this problem? Thanks in advance

Stop using your hands to support yourself. For real your handle bars are not there to support you. Use your legs, feet, abs. Tuck you elbows in when you ride so this will not let you support your weight. You will find it will handle better also

The one thing people don`t think is the problem is that the wheels need to be balanced this can send a vibration to the handle bars [8D]

yea the same thing happens to me, it all comes down to riding style. sportbikes are notorious for a forward riding postion which does hurt after a long ride. i always just ride and pull over for some breaks. plus it lets the bike cool down at the same time.
