I removed the mirrors on my ST1300 today to check the turn indicator wiring for LED fitment in the mirror edge. As I removed each mirror, with a bump from behind (beautiful work Mr Honda!) a black screw dropped to the floor (both mirrors).
6 months prior I had removed all fairings to allow service (flush) of all fluids. This included the mirrors and the two black screws inside the mirrors that secure the fairing at that location in position. It is the black screws that dropped and the other two were loose.
My question is: Have ST owners noticed these screws may loosen through vibration, or have I been neglectful of tightening the screws at re-assembly of the fairings 6 month ago?
Thanks, D
