• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

F3T Mirror shake

Hello everyone. I was having a problem with my mirrors shaking on my 2016 F3T. I did a lot of searching on different threads and decided to check out you tube. I found a video on how BMW fixed a Canam and checked it out. It was a technician (Shawn Smoak) on the video had some O rings and placed them on the two post and tightened up the screw. Now I ran down to Ace hardware and bought 4 "o" rings (sized 1/16 thick and .2222 inside diameter) .69cent each and put them on. Tomorrow I am out for a long ride and will update on the results and mileage. Fingers crossed:pray::pray::pray:
 
Don’t know if that will work but if it doesn’t you can order a set of our Mirror Wedgies for $25. We have sold 100 sets and everyone has liked them.
 
When I bought my F3L, I took it from the shop directly to Joe and Ann's place... Had them do lots of mods. One of them was their Mirror Wedgies. Have not ever experience the mirror shakes! Thanks Joe and Ann!
 
Double stick tape solved my vibes. :thumbup: Tom :spyder:

I tried the tape. Helped very little. You can still move the entire mirror housing. The 3 mounting points get loose. The wedgie completely stills the hole unit. Thanks again Joe!
 
It worked. no more shaking. Tightened the mirror and placed o rings and solved my shaking mirrors. Went for an 81 mile ride and could use the mirrors and see what was behind me. Dont know for how long this will work but will let you all know.
 
Wedgies made the wife and my mirrors solid as a rock, and still solid after several thousand miles on our two Spyders........ We're more than pleased!.....
Thanks to Joe and Ann for "steadying" my world!
 
Rog go to the home page on this site and scroll toward the bottom. In the middle of the page toward the bottom you will see the banner for Squared Away. Send them an email or give them a call. They will send the wedgies right out.
