Anyone know how to tighten the mirrors?

The collar around the ball joint the mirrors swivel on can be rotated to tighten or loosen the joint. On my 2012 bike there is a single very fine hex bolt holding it in place.

We had a thread last year maybe helpful too.

I have to admit my mirrors will become loos very often - had already thought to replace but i am not sure if other one are better.

I got a special tool from Harlan that is a pin wrench that fits the holes in the collar. Some hardware stores sell adjustable pin wrenches. Also, as I remember, there is a tiny Allen set screw down in one of those holes, that has to be loosened first. Look for that screw before attempting to rotate the collar!
