Title: buzzy mirrors
Post by cygnet on 06/03/17 at 20:14:01

Just wondering if anybody has tried to get there mirrors a little more stable? I have a new 2017 and the mirrors are bad, maybe when it breaks in it might get smoother. The rest of the bike is fairly smooth not much vibration in the foot pegs, seat is good, even can't complain about the grips just can't see out the mirrors.

take the tank off so you can get at the upper motor mount.
torque the upper motor mount bolts.
usually when these are loose you feel it in the grips.

check the lower bolts too, you tend to feel those in the pegs.

I can't see details out of the mirrors on my 06, but I'll try what Verslagen suggested.

You could try bar end weights or filling the bar ends with lead ,either may help calm vibration .

If he has the stock bars, they already have a big hunk of steel welded into the ends of the handlebars.

It's a thumper. Riders who grip the bars too hard have hands that tingle. The mirrors pass inspection and show Something in That Lane, then I look,, I look, I LOOK before I change lanes unless I'm working through traffic and I already Know what's where.
