• 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.

Magic Mirror Mounts

I have lost track of how many times I have demonstrated the magnets at SpyderFest. Haven't met anyone yet who wasn't impressed.
 
Based on MY experience, expect 18 days from order to delivery. Your mileage may vary. Can't wait to install them but just got back from Spyderfest 2017 in Springfield. Maybe take a couple of non Spyder days off.
 
Hope mine shows up in my mailbox soon. It's been 19 days so hopefully will arrive this week. Mine was shipped on April 10th. Tracking says it arrived in Chicago on the 20th. :popcorn:
 
:2thumbs: :2thumbs: Picked up a set of Magic Mirror Mounts from Lamont while my wife and I were at Spyderfest....I installed these mighty magnets today, after we returned home, and it only took about 15 minutes to install them on "My Serenity" :spyder: wow....Magic Mirror Mounts is going to save a lot of wear and tear at service and farkle time....:thumbup: :thumbup: I really like them :coffee:........:clap::clap:

I ordered mine April 2nd got a message they were shipped on the 10th.
May 1st and still no M&M's. I wrote Russell and was told the problem is on my end.
My bad, should have ordered from somewhere else.
Never again.

Looks like Doc has them

Where can I buy them ? All the places I have checked show them "out of stock"

Check out Roadster Renovations (site sponsor) on the home page. Just checked and looks like he still has them.

Good luck, they are great.

We are waiting for a new shipment. About 10-12 days. You can go ahead and order and be guaranteed to get them when we receive them.
 
Got mine installed, very easy install took 30 minutes but I always take my time. Only had to take my mirrors off the old fashion way one time. :yes:
 
Magic mirror installed

We still have a few left for sale before we reorder. They are awesome!!

I received my set from Doc Humphreys in about 3 days and installed them the next day! They work great!! I now one concern, a friend of mine has had them for a few months, and the other day he drove over a railroad track that had a pot hole in the road he could not see the hole, and the shock of the railroad track and pot hole shook one of his mirrors off and it hit the road and broken the entire mirror into several pieces! He had to order a new complete mirror!! Now I am concerned about loosing one to bad places in the road!! Nothing came in the box to catch them if one is shook off the trike while riding! Any suggestions?
 
Clips?

According to the install video you install a clip & cable that will secure the mirror to the bike when you pop the mirror off. That *should* catch it during a freak pothole incident I would think. Must have been some pothole!! :yikes: I should be getting mine in a week or so, looking forward to installing them.

Have to make your own tether..They don't come with the kits anymore. Are you sure they are installed properly? (mirrors) Or was it a giant ditch to cause it to fall off..
 
South GA Farm Boy, did your friend have the Mirror Magics fitted properly & if so, were the mirrors sitting on them properly before the mirror fell off??

I ask this, simply because (due to dodgy dealer work) I had THREE separate 'mirror falling off' events because a dodgy dealer here broke the OE clips; but AFAIK not one of the Mirror Magic equipped mirrors has come off yet, even during testing at (very) high speed, or on (very) rough roads, and even when smacked pretty damn hard at high speed by an errant magpie that converted itself to a bloody mess on my RH Mirror that then sprayed all over me & my Spyder!! The magnets are WAAAAYYY over-capable for the loads on them, they are FAARRR stronger than the OE mounts but easier to get on or off - I'd expect the mirror to break in situ before it fell off, IF the Mirror Magics are fitted properly & the mirror is clipped on properly! :dontknow:

So I can't really see a Mirror Magic equipped Mirror just falling off for a pot hole, no matter how big: & that's why the tethers were deleted from the kits - well, that & the fact that they were time consuming to make by hand & were gonna push the price up significantly if they were manufactured... & besides, there's the wiring there to sorta work as a tether, & the OE mirror mounts didn't include a tether & these Magic mounts will hold your Mirror on WAAAYYY better than the OE Mounts anyway! :lecturef_smilie: So if a properly mounted/fitted Magic Mount equipped Mirror fell off, it would've done so a whole lot earlier with the OE mounts!! :shocked:

I hit a pot hole on the way to Spyderfest and they did not come off.
But the pot hole did jar a kidney stone loose.
Also you have to make sure no wires are in the way.
 
Awsome

Installed mine last week about 30 minutes. Very straight forward install. They are rock solid at speed no more mirror shake. It's a must have. :yes::yes::yes:
 
As Peter said the wiring to the turn signal should hold the mirror from falling to the ground.
 
Hmm. Mine did last week. Curiouser and curiouser.:dontknow:


See post 33

You may have had the first batch after that tethers were not included in the kits from what I have read so far.
