anyone use gel lined gloves?

[keet]

...i recently switched from a "wing" to a VFR....really enjoying the new toy, but have had a problem with numbness with my throttle hand after a relatively short time on the bike,the wing didnt have this problem,but it also occurred with the old FJ i used to have at about 4500 rpm...anyway i was wondering if any of you guys had a similar experience, and how did you solve it?....gel handgrips?....or gel lined gloves?....please reccomend a product that u think works well..if there is such an animal........thanks!!!....

Fill your clipons or bars with lead shot.

Cheap and effective.

Does that add a lot of weight? Does it effect handling at all?

Maybe on the VFR you are leaning a bit further forward on the bars? Might just be that you have to adjust your riding position by not putting all your weight on your wrists?

yes and they suck big time

I have heard the following to be helpful in some circumstances:

Heavier bar ends (hayabusa)
Cushier grips
Filled bars (i.e. foam or steel balls)

I am going to try new grips and putting something in my bars to change the resonance.
