Yep, that is a problem. Helmets as stable as you think they might be while strapped to your head are not completely vibration free. Tonight I retried my Take a Look ( mounted to my glasses ). Seems like I found the right position. I have mine adjusted so that the mirror comes very close to the front of the visor. I had to bend the wire a bit to do that but it seems to be working and the view from the mirror is great. Since it's now higher than before I don't have the mirror blocking so much of my view to the left. This is an acceptable compromise. I'll have to try it on an extended road ride but I think it's going to work better than the Third Eye. No vibrations and way better visual acuity. Since it comes so close to the visor I might have to trim of bit of the visor away to prevent occasional contact but I can live with that.
