We demonstrate mechanical coupling between two microbottle optomechanical resonators, which have high-Q optical and mechanical modes, by making adjacent on a single mode optical fiber. This structure can be utilized as a multimode optomechanical system where multiple optical and mechanical modes are coupled each other. Furthermore, it would be applicable to novel applications, control of optical and mechanical modes by adding tensile and torsional forces and operation in liquid environment.
