Hi,
I recently bought some new mirrors {Kryankaun ??}and got the adapters from Brent. To my shagrin, when I go about 65-70 the mirrors start vibrating, making everything blurry. Any suggestions...Thoughts, Advice. I like them but not at the cost of my safety.


I do not ask for a fair life, only a Just one.

Keep your original mirror stems and attach yamaha xs mirrors from mike xs internat site. I did greatlooking mirrors, cheap, excellent quality and little to no vibration.

Blessings

Try installing a Rubber "O" ring over the threaded area, and reinstall mirror.

I got a set of the magnums a few years ago and they vibrate around 4000 RPM but are pretty clear otherwise. The stock mirrors didn't vibrate at all but didn't give me the wide angle view I get with the magnums.


We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.

My mirrors and Wendys don't vibrate any more that the stock ones did and I made similar adapters as Brent sells.
