Anyone know where I can find a set of mirror vibration dampers? Google, JCWhitney and Ridegear (the 3 I look at first for everything) show nothing.

Yanno, i have a set that came to me on my 1100G, they are WONDERFUL, but i'll be damned if i know where to get them...
Bikebandit and Babbittsonline still show them as being available from Suzuki. Look up the parts fiche for 1983 GS1100G, then go to the handlebars drawing.

They're on the fiches for the 79-83 GS850G, but not the GL.
About $10-$12 each, depending on your parts source. Very much worth it, too.
Unfortunately, the originals were chromed, while new ones come with a dull black finish.

Sweet that must mean mine are originals
Still work fantastic. Wish they made something like that for bar-end mirrors....

I didn't realize they were original equipment. I'm gonna order the OEM ones today. Those ones from JCWhitney didn't get too many favorable reviews.
I think these will only work on a four-cylinder bike, where the handlebar vibration is at a higher frequency.
Just for giggles, I tried a set on my VX800, which is a V-twin, and they actually made things a bit worse. You'll notice the reviewers at JCW who gave it negatives were riding large V-twins.
I'm sure the Suzuki parts are much higher-quality than the JCW parts as well, and they come with lock nuts.
