Sprint Anyone Found A Permanent Cure For St1050 Wobbly Mirrorstors?eanc

I believe the later model mirrors have a threaded section rather than a star washer so it's easier to tighten the spring but I'm not 100% on that. However, that won't really help if you need to fold them due to space limitations.

I'm not totally convinced that it's all down to how tight the mirror is. I think part of the problem is the amount to strength in the attachment point. If you hold the fairing at the end (i.e. at the end just along from the mirror) then the shaking will reduce dramatically.

 

Hold this area of the fairing with your left hand and the mirror will stabilise a bit

 

Ok, yes I did mean to hold that with your left hand while on a motorway or similar.

 

I've been to the same conclusion.
Not a real issue for me , but if it starts to be, I'll apply some fiberglass inside the fairing, around the mirror leg attachment.

 

My Sprint GT mirrors buzz at certain speeds. As stated above, tightening the screw at the fairing connection doesn't really do much. I thought about removing the mirror glass and adding some more weight behind it - worked for me before on a K100RS I had years ago.

 

Hiya, new here, just got an 05 1050ST, anyone know the washer size I'd need to redo the mirror as I've got the wobbly issue too...
