Default Mirrors moving

I just got my scoot back from getting a dyno & tune from the shop. For whatever reason now my mirrors will not stay in position. They, more one than the other, seem to be loose or vibrating down. Anyone know of a way to tighten the lil basterds up?

It is the mirror itself. I had to go back to the dealer to pick up my truck and bitched at them until they gave me another mirror. Until then I am gonna super glue it.

Super glue? Is it that bad? Sorry to get off topic but, what kind of power did you make? I have the same bike as you with a PCIII, BSS, and K&N. I dont know what stock is but I made 77/87.
