Default WindRestrictor Shake

I’ve installed a WindRestrictor brand destructor on my 2010 GS. Very happy with its performance. That said, viewing it in my rear view mirror I notice a little “shake” in it. No noise, no rattle, it just moves a bit at speed. I checked the brackets and they’re very solid and don’t move at all when I put pressure on them.

Is this normal?

TIA

You guys and your simple glitch problems.
Ride a Harley touring bike, where the rear view mirrors are worthless with the amount of vibration on the bike over 30mph, then the slight vibration on the plexiglass defector will seem moot.

As for back to defector, if the vibration is bothering you on the mostly plexiglass once, then go to another deflector that has more surrounding metal that will vibrate less instead.

Your spelling wasn't the reason for my ignorance.
I'm a coupe guy. However, when I don't know or understand I ask questions and Google.
