Default 2010 WG mirror rattle
Under heavy acceleration my factory mirrors rattle like crazy. You can hear them chirping over the exhaust. Anyone else?

Install a louder exhaust. You're on your 1st HD aren't you.

Default It wasnt the mirror
It wasn't the mirror after all. It was my back fender where it met the shock. Quick turn of the wrench, no more prob

I was going to say I bet it wasn't the mirrors. the only "chirp" I have is from the sissy bar.

I have the same problem. I bought new mirrors but haven't put them on yet. I get a chirping noise when I hit a certain speed in low gear, I'm assuming it's the mirrors. The stock mirrors are miserable, I really hope these other mirrors will change that. I don't know what else to do. I know it's not the motor mounts because the bike barely has 300 miles on it and the mirrors are tight.

after removing my sissy bar, the fender bolts didint line up right. It was the bolt right at the shock. the outer cover was rubbing the shock. I just pulled both bolts and realined them. NO squeaking since
