Consumer Description

BOTH MIRRORS MOVE AT BALL JOINT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE HOTTER THE WEATHER THE MORE THEY MOVE. THIS BRINGS FOR DANGEROUS RIDING WHEN TRAVELLING WITH OTHER CARS BECAUSE THE MIRRORS MOVE OUT OF ADJUSTMENT FAST AND YOU HAVE TO CONSTANTLLY REAJUST THEM. I HAVE HAD THEM REPLACE UNDER WARRANTY AND THE REPLACEMENT MIRRORS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE HEARD FROM NUMEROUSE OTHER BIKERS WITH THE SAME MODEL BIKE THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME COMPLAINT.*AK
