To TricLed...
I recently bought the Wide view mirrors at the Red Rock Ralley and Reggie installed them for me. So here is the interesting thing.....I have an RS and as you know the oem set up only let you see your hand when looking in the mirrors. So as many did I added the Up and Out extenders and between the two the vibration was always there though the view was great. After the TricLed wide view mirrors were added the view was really great but for two reasons. 1. you have a much broader view 2. but the vibration, though still the same, is not as noticeable in the view. My guess it has something to do with the shape of the lens...May only be me

I've noticed the same. You could be correct, it could be the shape of the mirror lens. Dale

RE: Vibration: Have you installed those handlebar weights that were offered by BRP early on? I put them on my 08 and 09 and the vibration stopped.
