Anyone ever experience a straining feeling on the inside portion of their throttle hand forearm? I've had this pain before when riding long wheelies on my 50....but now on my f4i, my inside forearm has been getting rediculously pumped and strained......

Starts to go into effect after about 3 minutes of riding.....

Tendonitis? torn muscle?????

 

if you ride alot for two weeks it wil never happen as long as you ride alot ..

alot of water helps...

 

Eat more banana's......Seriously. The potassium in them helps reduce the effects of fatigure and arm pump.

 

+1 to all of the above. As lame as this sounds, a daily multivitamen will help with fatigue. And as old man rodger said, practice and get the nirve callaced(sp?) as possible. What kind of gloves you using? my astars used to do the same thing to my throttle hand. I got a diff pair and never happen again.

 

....word on the water, vito's, nanas (vitamin K)....

im runnin the Astars SPS, like um because there cumfy..

 

i like the gloves with a soft swead palm it grips very good and i don't really have to hold on tight ,like moto x gloves

 

turn ur idle up, remove hands.. control rear brake.

 

that and i probably eat 5 or 6 bannanas and oranges a week and i didn't even know that helped arm pump

 

makes sense.......Ima use my Mx gloves this weekend..I notice not holding on SO tight make a bit of a difference....but after a while, **** gets hard to hold on to cuz on the pump/strain.

 

Yea mine were a's were comfy too. Im not sure which ones they were, but they looked like strong bads (homestarrunner) gloves just black with a CF plate. They were comfy, but even just riding around no wheelies or nothing my throttle hand would go numb within a few minutes, and forarm would ache like a ****.


and +1 to the moto gloves. I like my thors. I use these half finger gloves alot to. got em from a harly shop with my father in law. They were 5 bucks, and i went down with em, and my hands were golden.

 

stop jerking off before you ride

 

jerkin would help build a callace!

 

Ride the 50 even more.. that works best for me.. Nothing builds my arm up like a 50

 

Your forearms are weak. Banannas wont help your forearms LOL. Either ride more or hit the gym.

 

skinny little camel arms.

 

Also if you smoke - quit. Smoking restricts the arteries and prevents enough blood from pumping thru.

 

i got this problem too, and even though i rode as a ****** for months it's was still goin on.
Someon,e told me to "press" two o three fresh lemons in a water bottle, to drink before and while u ride.
Tryed it and was just stunned how useful it was, can't go ride w/o this, if i do i gotta stop each 15 mins for 5-10 mins

 

you could have just had some gatorade it does the same thing or if its realy bad go get you some l glutamine and take that after you ride.

 

bengay

 

most likely tendonitis. i had it too.. theirs not much to keep it from going away. after about a month an 1/2 mine was back better.
