Default heel shifter lever loose

I bought and installed some new kuryakan toe/heel shifter levers. Problem is the heel has some play in it and shakes pretty good,oem seemed to be tighter. Is there a easy fix as in loc tight or some sort of washer/o-ring to stop it from shaking like a $2 ladder? The toe is tight on the spline, I would like to keep the levers on and not put the originals back on. Thanks!!

Each lever should have a pinch screw/bolt which allows you to tighten the lever to the spline. Is this not the case? A photo of what you're talking about might help.

It has the bolt that came with the set of levers. I have tightened it up snug but still seems to have play with it. Like I said I bought them from kuryakan so they are not the OEM levers. Toe shifter is snug.

Fixed I really came on to the bolt and now is nice and tight. I was scared I would snap it by all is good. No more rattle.
