Whiskey, I have the same bars. How do those bar end mirrors mount?

Typical bar end style. Expanding collars around a central bolt. You tighten the bolt, the collars expand inside the bars.

I installed a set of the Fugu mirrors from Samurider (http://www.samurider.com/?p=14930), and while they look great, the left one constantly vibrates out of position on bumpy roads or any speed over ~40 mph. The loose connection is the ball joint where the actual mirror connects to the arm. Anyone have any suggestions? Loc-tite?

I have the same problem with my new mirrors being a tad too loose at that ball joint. I was considering trying some BLUE Loc-tite and letting it flow in and around the ball.

Bar Ends require removal of the Factory installed anti-vibration bar weights. Don't think I want to do that so I've ordered the BikeMaster Old School. Revzilla shipped the same day, now waiting their arrival.

If you go with aftermarket bars it's not a big deal. Aluminium bars don't vibrate like the thin steal OEM. Just a fyi

I was able to put bar and mirrors on mine without removing the inserts, and I was able to keep the bar end weights:

No bar end weights needed with renthal bars and the looks and riding position is so much nicer. Love my renthals. Funny thing is after two sets of aftermarket mirrors i resorted back to the stock knes because they just complement the retro look. I change my mind alot so can always switch back at any time.
