Mirrors

[Bigen]

My wife and I just bought a rt limt. So far I love it. I have been a Harley Davidson rider for years but I am very happy with our new spider. The only thing is that we pull a bunk house with it and I can't see behind me. Is there anyone that could give me an idea on how I could put something on the spider so I can see cars behind me. I would be very thankful for the help.

Do a search for mirror extensions. I recall a discussion a while back.

Tricled sell some mirrors....also Saeng Quick Scans are cool!

A rear view cam ... some with dedicated screen some to the smart phone. Depending on trailer height mounted on the trunk or trailer.

Hi Bigen, we sell Wide Vu mirror for RT, this is a stick on convex mirror, just right on top of your OEM mirrors.
the mirror will eliminate blind spots, wider angle by 30%. I'm including images below (2) to show comparison of angle view between OEM and Wide Vu.
A link to product in our website also included.
Let me know if you have any questions

... and screwed them on the ends of the handlebar grips because I pull a bunkhouse as well...

Now I am thinking about the rear-view cam... I really want to see the cages that are around me...

I would recommend the wide-vu from tricled. I bought a pair and installed them on my '16 RT-S and really like them. Great product from a great site sponsor. Dale

I think the TricLED mirrors are in my future.
Great idea.

Is that because the Bunkhouse is too wide or too high. In either case I'm not sure the Wide-Vu mirrors will help. When I pull my tent-on-a-trailer it's high enough that my view directly behind is pretty much totally blocked. I've tried a couple of different mirror setups without much luck. One problem is vibration. Any mirror on the end of a stem wants to vibrate a lot, so much so the image is not clear at all. I've concluded the best solution to see directly behind if the stock mirror sight line is blocked would be a rear view camera. If I take another long trip with my tent trailer I plan to seriously look at doing that.

The windshield is a good place to mount a mirror, but it vibrates a lot. I had mine fastened to the dash, but at the end of a 6" stem it vibrated a lot. On the end of the handlebars might work, but if your trailer is wide you still won't be able to see directly behind. But put them on the end of a 6" or 8" long stem they'll vibrate.

I would seriously explore the rear view camera approach.
