Anyone else's hands go numb while riding?

Tank/airbox grips and some core workouts will do wonders for you. If your hands are starting to go numb, grip the airbox a bit tighter and use your core to take the pressure off your hands.
 
Cruising at the 30 mph, I have difficulty identifying spatial relation of objects in my OEM mirrors due to the amount that they are vibrating. At WOT, approaching the rev limiter, the bike is like riding an earthquake.... I can't agree with the statement that the XB's are about on par with other bikes in terms of vibration at idle or on the throttle. The XB has many positives IMO, but vibration dampening is not one of them.
 
Also…bar-end weights can reduce the 'buzz'…which will help eliminate the "tinglies" from that source. I just added some heavy bar-end weights to my XB9S and it made a BIG difference for the better…

Thanks guys, all great in put. After some reading and thought, I'm pretty sure its my posture. I'll try taking weight off my hand and putting more on my feet and ass.

Thanks!
