Default VFR mirror wont tighten up.

Ok.

VFR as you know.


my right mirror is fine.. will push in and pull out and stay in position tightly

left one. once pushed in.. when pulled out is all floppy and lose and requires the use of the allen key to nip it up..

is there a washer missing or a corrugated washer or what??

Had similar on my curvy... The bolt is slightly seized onto the arm. I fixed it by disassembly, clean up, copper slip on touching surfaces and a bit of threadlock on the bolt.
