Has anyone had the problem with a high frequency vibration which you feel in your hands after mowing for awhile? It makes the end of your fingers numb and this will last a couple of days.

I have the same problem, but only in one hand. Same thing when I ride a motorcycle.

If you'd like, I can move this thread to the Bad Boy forum where it might get more views by Bad Boy owners.

I balance my new blades - I've had some that were pretty far out of balance. A blade could have gotten bent uncrating the machine or hopping a curb too. Also, you don't need to have a death grip on the steering levers. I'm not saying there couldn't be an issue with your machine though.
