    I hadn't considered the grip size being a possible cause. or at least making me grip tighter.

    This is a GREAT description of what I meant when I posted, "Focusing on pushing my elbows are far down as possible."

    Since we're here I'll add that, I don't get any "aches or pains" anywhere else and I did a 1500 mile Iron Butt on the stock seat. The bikes too perfect for that.

    I bought the better forks which are 1" lower but I have not installed them yet.
    I have had them for 3 years. I need to install them.

    My problem is how wide the F6B seat is even with the Mustang 1" lower and narrower seat.
