Product Information

Ideally, it would even have some ability to give in a crash and prevent damage not only to the mirror, but also to the bike. NOTE: BMW G310GS & YAMAHA T7 TENERE REQUIRES OUR LEFT-HAND THREADED ADAPTOR ON THROTTLE SIDE TO MOUNT DOUBLETAKE MIRRORS. The product meets each of the goals I started out with, and after thousands of miles of testing, has proven to be exactly what I was looking for all those years!" First, because there are two ball joints, you have the ability to position it exactly where you want it, both when extended for viewing, and also when folded away. Last fall, when I dropped my bike and found myself buying two(!) new master cylinders as a result, and I decided it was time to make a really good mirror, one that would function well as a mirror, and also protect the bike (and me) from damage.

Each complete mirror kit comes ready to fit and includes an M10 x 1.25 (right hand) threaded ball mount, 5-1/4" RAM arm, and the plastic moulded mirror assembly. Many experiments later, the mirror for sale here is the result. The benefits of this system are many, but let me expound on a few: The breakaway design of the Double Take mirrors makes it possible to ride off-road safely without folding down the mirrors.

I'm sure it is possible to break the mirror, but I haven't succeeded yet and I've tried pretty hard, going so far as to race an enduro with the mirror in place. That it could fold completely out of the way, safe from giving or receiving damage when offroad and, One small annoyance we experienced with the Double Take folding dual sport mirrors was that they sometimes lost their adjustment after riding at higher speeds. The mirrors stayed in place under 80 mph but when traveling any faster, the constant wind pressure would start to push them out of adjustment. Cranking down the twist lever made this occur less frequently. This mirror is the product of much frustration- I spent years breaking other designs and wondering what was going on behind me on the road.

Double Take folding motorcycle mirrors use standard RAM 1″ ball mounts as pivot points on the extension arm for maximum adjustability and impact resistance. Negatives are, its tall but lowering kit sorted that, it is heavy, especially fully loaded when stationary but once moving it feels light. In the warmer months, the engine gives off a lot of heat, uncomfortable when stationary. I found standard mirrors in effective (blurred vision) so changed to double take ones. Some riders may find the narrow 21inch front wheel a bit twitchy.I have changed the brake/clutch levers to short ones, giving more control & protected these with Storm Barkbusters, converted rims to tubeless, with Avon TrekRiders 50/50 tyres & fitted a prefilter which makes the engine breathe easier and gives better throttle response. I have also had the suspension set up for me. Convex lens- we used SAE spec convex glass that provides a nicer field of view than a flat piece would, while retaining the ability to focus on details. Triumph claimed that the updated motor with its new fuel system could deliver 17% better fuel economy, which equated to 65mpg (up from a claimed 55mpg before) and that the 19-litre tank could see you covering distances of up to 272 miles. In practice the numbers are closer to a genuine 55mpg with a 210-mile range but that’s still not bad at all.
