Vibration Noise in Fairing

Well, I finally switched my brake rotors left to right and the squeeling is gone in the front brakes but I still have a vibration noise in my fairing. It happens between 1500 and 2000 RPM's and also when I hit a bump. It sounds like something is loose in there. The sound seems to come from the right speaker area because if I apply pressure to that area of the inner fairing, the noise stops. I've taken the fairing apart three times already and now I even have a scratch in it because it slipped and hit the edge on the concrete. I have tightened the little brackets that come off the speaker screws, wire tied connector, snugged up the radio screws. Has anybody had a issue like this and if so, what cured the problem? I was thinking of Dynamatting the inner fairing but it will be soon replaced by the dealer because of the mirrors mounted too low. Do you think they might find the problem? I've heard of cracked brackets in the fairing but I don't know which ones they are talking about.

Well I found the problem. The front right speaker was defective. The tweeter in the center of the speaker had approx. 1/8 of an inch of movement. I will be replacing both speakers with Hogtunes but until I get them, I made a thin metal brace across the front of the speaker and used the diagonal speaker screws to hold it in place.
