veracocha Posted September 24, 2022 Posted September 24, 2022 Had my first day of DAS training today and within 10 minutes my hands were so numb I couldn't operate the indicator switch. Now I've been riding a new 125 for six-weeks without issue so no idea why this should occur. Took an hour of riding to get any feeling back. Other than that went the day well. Mod-1 next week. Any suggestions? Quote
bonio Posted September 24, 2022 Posted September 24, 2022 Hmm. Could be the riding position is trapping a nerve. Or (less likely I'd have thought) engine vibes down the bars are affecting your hands. What bike were you riding? You can either try sitting a bit further forward or back on the bike - if it's a trapped nerve this can be enough to make a difference. Or ask to use a different model of bike, if they have one. 1 Quote
veracocha Posted September 24, 2022 Author Posted September 24, 2022 It was a Kawasaki GS650 I think, an 08 plate and the mirrors were buzzing like a bee. My 125 seems much smoother. 1 Quote
Tiggie Posted September 24, 2022 Posted September 24, 2022 Sounds like the bike might be the issue. If you get the same one again perhaps bring it up to the instructor and see what he/she thinks about it. 2 Quote
