    I commute regularly on my bike, 40 mins of 70mph interstate at a time, and have found two things that really help: Comfortable grips (I have big mitts, so oversized but squishy grips are a must; good grips help deaden vibrations too) and a decent windscreen that will direct most of the wind up over your helmet. I'm firmly in the "throttle rest" style camp as well, I don't use it for my commute, but for longer highway blasts I have it set up all the way to the inside of the throttle, and rest my thumb/thumb side of my palm, on it to keep the throttle open and stretch out my fingers.

      Look up "Grip Puppies" on Google - These are foam that slides over the existing grips and makes them bigger and softer
