Thanks for the reply. Seems to be the same on different bikes. Can also happen t right hand driving. Sometimes think it could be phycosematic - it only happens when I think about it!! About a year ago I gave up a computer career for a more physical occupation, this probably dosen't help. Tried favouring my left arm, but its amazingly inept.
Cheers

: It could be CTS but it could be other things as well. The vibration is probably the cause. You would need to have some test done to be sure it is not something other than CTS (MRI of the neck, blood work and nerve study of hand/arm).

: Hope you get better.

: : Anyone know of how riding a motorcycle can trigger it? After about 10 mins my right hand starts to tingle in the appopriate fingers and eventually the whole hand goes numb. Tricky.
: : Does this sould like CTS? The alternative could be a Harley D which is obviously not an option.
