I have two, 2000 Polaris Indy 600 XC Deluxe 45th Anniversary sleds.

My wife's throttle thumb gets very sore after a few hours of riding. I have tried the thumb raps like they use for carpal tunnel and the extenders but they have not helped. Anyone have any other suggestions?:(

i had that same problem last year when i got the sled i'm riding now. i tried the thumb wrap also and it didn't help. the only thing that helped was time. one woman we talked to turned the throttle so that she was pushing it with her fingers instead of thumb. sounded a little dangerous to me so i just toughed it out. it will get better and i've had no problems this winter.:) happy trails!
