• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

This is a crude vid I shot
it was really early days in development so mounts are a lot diff now but still gives some idea of concept

you tube. Magic mirrors Russell culley

thanks. Russ


Very impressive, I would purchase them if they were available
Maybe Lamonster could find out from Lamonster Downunder
 
I've pulled my mirrors off and put them back on more times than I wished trying to find a squeek. Count me in,
 
I have Merlot's Magic Mirrors fitted to my RTS and they are a fantastic Idea. I can actually refit my mirror to the bike one handed. They are a solid mount and all wobble and movement is gone. And no more bashing and crashing to get them off and on. And you can fit a tether if you want but not needed.
I did a demo at a shed day a couple of Saturday's ago and the interest shown by the RT rides is great. No more worries about that little plastic part breaking or the Secure "spring" on the lower clips stretching.

I also have been a Test Jockey for Merlot for at least a month (or so) and finding this a great idea and advancement for the Spyder.
 
I know that I asked for pictures... (And Thank you, for providing them!).
Does anybody have a video that shows the installation of these, and how well they hold things in place?

(Sorry: I just HAD to ask! :D)
 
Sign me up please! Let me know when available and how to order. I now have an RT. Traded the one showing in picture. :2thumbs:

Great product

I hope you can get these stateside soon. I like them. Far superior to the terrible original mounts.
Will be awaiting updates.

Thank You
 
ranman..im on my 2nd RT
i broke my first top mount while fitting elkas to first bike....only had 500ks or 350mls up
talk about early baptism........since then i have hated the oem mounts:sour:

Never broke a mount, but a long while back got rid of the oem mirrors entirely and fabricated my own parts to mount less cumbersome mirrors.

If your mounts had been available then, pretty certain I would have gone that route. Great idea and solution to the oem design.

Coming from you Noboot that is quite an endorsement, I replaced my windshield middle bracket with the one you produced on my 1st Spyder 2010 SE5 RT I was so impressed with it, I had the dealer transfer it to my 2015 RT SE6
I will order Merlot's Magic Mirrors once they are available on his website
There are some great upgraded products for us Spyder riders
Keep up the excellent work
 
Count me in too!

Looking forward to getting the mounts for my bike! Can't wait! Hope I can order them stateside

They are selling an " easy off - easy on " system for the side mirrors of the RT's....... they are STRONG MAGNETS w/plates that re-place the OEM method of attachment ...... visit the link above ( in post # 41 ) and watch the video they have ...... Mike :thumbup:
