Default Amazed by my rear view mirrors

I have the Harley chrome skull mirrors. The ones that are pointy on the end. At a traffic light it isamazing that with all of the dancing around those mirrors do fromthe vibration at idle that the images in the mirrors are totally motionless. Isit magic?Maybe my head is vibrating at the same cadence and cancels everything out.

It is the forces of skull evil... You really aren't on your bike... you are imagining the whole thing.

Muffler bearings are canceling out the vibrations.

Oh, absolutely. There can be no other explanation. Studies have shown that 50% of all vibrating mirrors cut down on 100% of movement on 10% of all motorcycles of which 3% account to magic. Really.
