Description
Vario Round Mirror
These are ingenious mirrors with wide adjustment possibilities. If needed, they can be folded completely out of the way. This solves several problems such as moving in traffic or when parking, also when off-road riding (not in the way when riding standing up) and in case of a fall the mirrors are better protected. The aspherical (2 planes) mirror surface widens the field of vision and reduces the "blind spot", a problem associated with the original mirrors. The special mirror glass incorporates alight blue anti-glare layer that reduces sun and light reflections to a minimum. In contrast to most pure off-road mirrors, these are "E" approved and suitable for road use.
Fits left or right side. Sold EACH.
The R1200 RT can greatly benefit from the installation of these mirrors! Though the original mirrors are well placed to provide wind protection, they are not in the optimal spot for a clear view of what's behind and especially if you are traveling with luggage on the rear.
R1200 RT up to 2009:
- If you have a large aftermarket windshield, these mirrors may not work for you because the mirrors may contact your windshield when the handlebars are turned fully. We have not tested compatibility with the many aftermarket shields available.
- The upper holes in the controls may be a bit too small for these mirrors to fit. In this case, a round file, Dremel Tool or a rolled up piece of sandpaper can be used to slightly enlarge the upper hole, and the mirror will slide right in. This is not a defect of the mirrors, in some cases this extra machining process was omitted on the RT by the factory because it was not foreseen to install mirrors in the control assemblies on the RT.
