Hi,
I bought my FZ6 abt a month ago. I have put around 1k miles on it. I cant be more happier than I am when it comes the pleasure I get from riding it in the beautiful roads of Cali.
Unfortunately...for some reason after every ride I get this unbearable pain in the thumb joints on my both hands. Its something I have been unable to figure out as to what could this be the reason I always thought that with the more upright riding position of the FZ6, "strained wrist" problem was never an issue. Infact I think my wrists are fine. Its just my thumb joints. This pain is really killing me
Only the hunger to ride my FZ6 is pushing me to still get on the saddle even though I know its gonna hurt later
For the record I definitely have no "joint conditions". I am 27(yesterday was my bday!!!:thumbup: I am not a big man either! I am 6ft 2inches and weigh 170lbs..just incase it counts..
This is my first 600cc motorcycle. I used to ride 250cc and less before for abt 10 yrs. I never had this problem before.
I just have a feeling may be if I put up some extra thick grips and increase the dia of the handle bars, it would help me relax my palm(maybe)
I need your inputs and any advise/suggestions which would help me enjoy the ride than think abt the pain I have to go through later.
Thanks in advance.
