Purchased a set and then saw your review. I wanted something I could easily pull in and relocate for filtering through traffic. They are very well made and don't look out of place on an adventure bike. Brilliant adjustability. I would recommend these for functionality but may look odd on something that isn't an off road capable bike. I have an Africa Twin so they look fine imho. Recommended.

I love mine on my R1200GS and my wife has them on her bike, a G310GS. In her case, they provided a much better rearward view. Now she sees more than just her shoulders. I’ve never known anyone to have theirs stolen, but good to know there is a solution if desired. I didn’t know that existed.

Locks are pointless...anyone can just screw them off at the base. BTW you can ft them without the adaptors, just buy an extra clamp from the clutch lever and fit on the brake lever.
@mancavemoto4 жыл бұрын
True, but it stops the opportunist thief with no tools but anyone determined to steal them will do so whatever. Thanks for the tip. Yep that’s an option but as the adapters are only $5 it’s not too much of an issue I guess?

Ram mount mirrors might be very functional, but my god they’re the ugliest mirrors on the market. Plus they’re silly money for what is essentially less then 50 pence worth of plastic! Just carry a spanner and take your mirrors off if you’re that precious about them or carry a spare set costing all of ten quid with you! Hinged, flip in mirrors for 8.99 a pair from China off eBay for me every time and look great! ...but thank you very much for the time and effort! Over 100 notes for a pair of crap looking mirrors...you need your bumps feeling with a mallet dude! 🤣🤣🤣 Regards, Dazza. 🇬🇧
@mancavemoto4 жыл бұрын
They are more of a functional rather aesthetic choice for sure, mind you I never really consider the looks of a mirror tbh. Its not the damage to the mirrors per se, its the potential for snapping or breaking the clamp with rigidly fixed mirrors. I've also got extra ram arms for mounting GoPros etc. Horses for courses I guess. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Cheers Tony
