Default mirrors

Has anyone put rubber mounted risers on the handle bars? The mirrors on my street bob vibrate so bad at road speed it looks like two images.
Thanks,
Joe

Strange, I don't have that problem at all - no vibration. Check the pressure in your front tyre.

Iam with you Sooee my wife's Streetbob is smooth as. I have read a few comments about vibration and I have to say her bike only shacks when stationary. You may be selecting the next gear a little to soon and luggjng the engine, just my thinking.

The mirrors will vibrate alot when at idle, but not when crusing down the road. You may want to check some bolts to see if anything came loose.
