Since I bought my KDX I have noticed my hand is going numb about 30min into the ride. :fft: Its my right hand and I havent broken anything on that arm ever. Any ideas? Thanx.
ps. I dont squeeze to tightly so thats out.

gas it

you gots to twist that throttle harder to keep that sucker awake.
seriously though i squeeze the throttle just a little tighter than the left and its the first to fall asleep i have to consciously loosen it once and a while..... i ride on the edge :aj: in sandy conditions and have to keep a pretty good grip or a misplaced and hidden root could kick the bars :bang:

That happens to me at every enduro or hare scramble I've raced. It always seems to be from holding too tight and trying to go too fast too early.

Nothing worse than wearing yourself out running as hard as you can for the first 20 minutes only to hit a reset before the first check!
