Title: wobbly tail light
Post by: bargovic on November 06, 2005, 07:23:20 PM
I let a friend ride my bike this weekend, ( swaped my bike for his 05 VW jetta for a bit ) to notice that the tail light shakes at times. I knew it was kinda loose, as you can move it with your hand. Has anyone else noticed this, and/or have a fix ? kinda sucks looking at a vibrating tail light.  Other than that it was nice to view my bike in motion from a car. Looks awesome. And the jettas are cool too, with all those features like a refrigerated glove box.

When I chopped off my fender, yeah I noticed mine is a bit loose also. I am thinking it is probably to compensate from all the vibration our GS' put off.

When I did my fender the taillight had a piece of black foam glued to the bottom of it and I slapped it on my clear tail when I put that on. I have never seen my bike from behind (did I just say from behind..)
Do you have one under your tail bargovic?

It's normal, except if the bolts holding it on are loose.
