MAGIC MIRRORS

[merlot]

hi all
this is my first post on sponsors board

i have updated the website so no need to repeat it here
suffice to say i am still waiting for bulk magnet suppliers(2) to inform me that product has been posted(to me)..i have been waiting a month now
once i receive said magnets i will then be able to reorder(i cant re-order til i know they are correct),then continue supply on a fortnightly basis

as soon as they land i can complete the sets and start posting(mid march?)

meanwhile i have done a couple of "how to" videos on you tube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvlj8fD5dfb3fg6cWbujjLw

or there is a link on website www.magicmirrors.shop

price rise on 1st of march due to handling costs(i had to take on an extra hand to help with packaging) but have tried to keep costs down
they still dont cost as much as one front tyre

thanks for your patience

i have watched all the latest videos the only thing I'm not sure about is how we would remove the existing pins from the body work to replace them with the Stainless Steel bolt with washers and magnets
Do the unscrew them as they don't appear to have a screw head on them, but I noticed there is a nut at the end of the pins close to the bodywork do you just use a wrench / spanner to remove them
I like the videos especially with the comments you make and the odd mistake they do cheer me up
Looking forward to getting my set next month

Video would be helpful as well. Might help get more orders from the faint of heart when it comes to DIY installs.

...when it comes to DIY installs. I like to tackle installs but I sure like pictures, diagrams, videos, and you folks standing by when I start. I am not a handyman but I can do stuff given directions. So, any detailed videos are appreciated.

[Chupaca]

Thanks for the updates on your production and supply schedule. Make for a good sponsor to keep folks informed. You will do well cause it is a great solution the a nagging problem with the design flaw perhaps....you will be busy....

lol. Love it rog

mike is right
pins are so simple to remove....ill show in the next video( couple of weeks,I have to go back to work) 13 mm spanner is what you need....you will get an "R.I.P." Bag in the kit..put all your original pins and petals in the bag and when you upgrade the bike you'll have everything together to reverse the install

the only "must do" with the install is to remove the top Tupperware washer first
if you don't then the top magnet will sit on the washer and it won't sit flat
i will send instruction with the kit so will make it easy

there are enough people on this forum who will have installed prior to your fitment so if there is anything the video doesn't explain I'm sure a forum member will chime in with an answer

Hi,
Would you know if they would fit / be suitable for a Spyder ST ? Would anybody know if it is the same pins for the RT and ST.?

May be BillyBovine, or Bluenight911 ?

Thanks in advance, and K.U.T.G.W. !!! :-)

[trikermutha]

PM Merlot and maybe he can answer your question.

No ..... they won't work with ST mirrors, because they mount in a different manner. I already checked this ....... Mike

Thanks Mike, B.T.W. I liked that you replied, not that it doesn't fit....!!!!!! hihihihihi

Are your going to the homecoming in June? If so, we should manage to meet ....

I think Prostrate and /or Testicular cancer should be included ...... but I'm biased ....... jmho ..... Mike

The McGrath foundation has a special place in Aussie's hearts, Mike. He is a very much loved and admired Aussie cricketer who tragically lost his wife to breast cancer at a very young age and has since worked tirelessly and very successfully to raise the profile of breast cancer. I'm sure if Russ was a multinational organisation making a million dollars he would include other research organisations, but I can't imagine that he has been able to afford his first luxury yacht yet .....maybe by next week.

Received the mirrors today in upstate N.Y. snow, sleet, rain and all the postman got thru. Will put them on tommorrow.

[Pastapower]

Wow! Received the Magic Mirror mounts March 29th & immediately had to put them on. Order # 941
Instructions were perfect as was Russell's video. It was a breeze to install, super easy but what an incredible difference!

One day while driving back home from a Can Am dealer after warranty work, my RT side mirror fell off dangling by the harness as I was doing 55mph. Luckily I was able to pull over & rescue it from falling off. Found out that the BRP tech boogered up & broke the top mount obviously when he tried to put the mirror back on.
Up until then I never took the mirrors off before as the bike only had 900 miles on her. I have taken the mirrors off myself since numerous times and have boogered up a few top mounts myself trying to get them on correctly & even then the mirrors always felt loose & made me nervous.
Not any more now that I installed the Magic mounts.

BRP should be envious as these mounts are well planned masterpieces to say the least!
Every Spyder RT owner should have these, they are definitely worth the small investment. They are now by far my favorite addition/improvement to my RTL!

Russell my friend, you hit it out of the park on this invention for us! Thank you brother, no more worries or frustration (or rather Anger) when dealing w/my mirrors. Now they go on & off so easily but yet are a perfect solid very strong fit w/absolutely NO vibration at all....I can actually see in my mirrors w/out the shaking like the previous inferior mounting system of BRP.

I use to dred taking the Tupperware panels off mainly because of how hard the mirrors were to take off & put back on w/the possibility of damaging the plastic mounts. Not any more Baby, These magic mirror mounts are Fantastic!!!
