AFTER RIDING AWHILE...
Too much Palm Pressure:
This is caused by several factors, rough roads, overreaching to the bars, or bars too
low. To correct for the rough road, try taking bumps at lower speeds or wearing padded gloves. Correct overreaching
first. Check seat location, too high will cause you to lean down to the bars more. As the bars are raised they come aft
a slight amount helping with the reach. Deeper bars or bars that extend further aft are available from your dealer and
our online store.
Back Muscle Fatigue:
This is a sign of overreaching or pulling too much on the bars (before being in shape). Try
rotating the bars to locate them more aft, or try a deeper set of bars. A little more tilt will shorten the distance to the
bars. If everything is adjusted correctly keep riding. As your muscles strengthen the fatigue will go away.
Some fine-tuning tips to enhance performance and enjoyment…
Numb Seat:
Time in the saddle is what will cause the circulation to restrict, and numbness to set in. Standing up on
the pedals for a few seconds will help. If this becomes a chronic problem, try putting a layer of open cell foam stuffed
between the stock cushion and seat. Adjustment of seat height and tilt may be required. You can buy open cell foam
for cushions at most craft stores.
