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

It's fine. It is what happens as it minimizes the turbulence.

Small stiff sail, it’s bound to shimmy and shake, I like the nylon net ones as they let air pass through to a certain extent.

The plexi glass etched ones are nice, but not my personal preference

Same here, my also moves but does a great job at reducing the turbulence within the seat area.
