    Are you using Renthal bars or the standard AT bars? If you're using Renthals I'd suggest getting the AT bars as they are more angled towards the rider. If you've got Renthals I might be interested in a swop. Let me know.

    Happy New Year

    You could try some nice big soft handgrips? Those foam ones might help?

    Otherwise, I guess you will have to think about some new handlebars.

    Cheers
