yeah i'll look into the throttle rocker idea. I hate sitting all the way forward on the bike with my nuts hugging the tank because i feel like a dork that belongs on a gold wing instead of a F4i.

I have Harris Pro grips. (Gel?)
1) Also, take a look at your position. I found that my throttle hand was cocked in a wierd way with my elbow out.
2) Stick it to your side and it lays the throttle better on the meat of your hand.
3) Loosen up.
4) Quit chokin' the chicken
