I recently replaced some very large, not pretty, bar end mirrors with CRG mirrors. They work great, fold in for tight places and look fantastic. However, given their light weight, my 01 V11 Sport has now developed very annoying handlebar buzz - no, more than buzz - numbing vibrations. I know it is the lack of weight that has brought this on. Would appreciate any ideas how to cut this down. I know our Guzzis vibrate through the bars but this is way too much. I love the way the CRG mirrors work and look and don't want to go back to the heavier ones. Any help will be appreciated.

Here's picture of my CRG mounted to the factory bar weight inserts that I had machined for the mirror clamp. In addition, I pushed some 1/4 inch lead balls up into the clip-on. There turn to a corroded mess over time, so I wouldn't do that again.

 

My local machine shop charged my $85 US to turn down the weights to may dimensioned drawings.
