These sound pretty neat, and I hope that it gives everybody a solution to the ongoing mirror complaints. :thumbup:
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
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:
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.
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:while I find it interesting, I am not sure what it is that is being offered... I will check back on the web site in a week or so......
