RE: [ST] Prob: Vibration causing hands to go to sleep

I had that problem for a short time twice.  The first was when I picked up
my ST last summer.  After not riding for 15+ years (and much smaller bikes
at that) I was a little nervous which resulted in gripping my bars too
tight.  After I realized that and loosened up it went right away.  Of course
you would think I learned from that.  This spring after the winter layoff I
took my baby out for a spin and had the numbness again.  Same solution
worked....just relax and ease up your grip....instant solution.

You may think you are using a light grip but are probably not.  Try putting
something very soft inbetween your hand and grip to see how light a touch
you are really using.

Hope it helps.

Eric
