Guys, where are you getting these mounts shipped from when you buy them? Does Vibra-Technics have a U.S. shop or store, or do they ship them all from England? Reason I ask is I'm in Canada and although it can be painful and kind of expensive getting goods shipped in from the States, it's even worse getting goods from across the pond. My Fat Bob needs a new front mount pretty bad and I can't see dropping the $190 the dealer wants for the poorly designed factory mount. Might as well pay a bit more one time and get a proper mount. Thanks guys.
for those with reduced mirror vibes (and tbars)...
I got out on my first ride since installing mx-tbars and noticed a big increase in vibes over the stock mini apes (to be expected, the apes were pretty flexy so likely soaked up a lot of them) - enough that things in the mirrors were buzzing round in circles, not useless but definitely not clear.
Did this help a lot wrt to vibes in the hands and mirror viz?
I still have the original mount with about 40k kms on it, is it time for a replacement?

the tracking number for mine says it should be here tomorrow
i will take a photo of what my mount looks like. the bike has 82000 and this is only the second mount. i have had the true track installed the whole time too, so not sure how that affects the wear
