    Default F3T mirrors shaking? Got a fix for you

    Recently I posted on here if any other's on this board noticed their mirrors shaking/vibrating a little bit too much on the F3T and maybe the Limited? A couple of other's said they did. Today while adding some Lamonster goodies to the bike I had the mirrors off and decided to see if I could stop that shaking. I think I did come up with a cure. Note the pictures below and how I laid out some weatherstrip foam on the back of the mirror. I used 3/16x3/8 foam weatherstrip attached to the back of the mirror to take up the slop on the mirror mounting. Note the pictures and try it out yourself. You will be pleased.

    Takes about 5 minutes each side. Probably one of the easiest and quickest fix I can remember doing.
