Doubletake Mirror Indestructible Motorcycle Mirrors - Adventure Set

Product Information

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!" My partner in that business and I got countless messages from people who had gone on a trip they might not otherwise have attempted, and their excitement positively glowed out of their messages. We loved that- nothing could be more rewarding, and that is really the same mission we still have even if the product is totally different. 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.

We carefully select products that we have tried and tested ourselves and found them to be essential to our wider riding community. Can you describe the fitment of the mirrors, their designs, and which you would recommend for makes/ models of bikes and certain styles of riding? The longer 3″ extension arms allow you to adjust the mirrors out to the sides giving you a better view of what’s behind you. Alpinestars Tech-Air 3: Airbag Vest That’s Not Just For The Street? As adventure riders, we tend to put a lot of miles on our... The other way to answer the question is a little less direct. There is a common message I see today about “following your passion”. I am uncomfortable with how that message is presented in mass media, like everyone who likes to eat should open a restaurant. I’m passionate about riding motorcycles, and that led me to this idea, but what I enjoy in my work is organizing and problem-solving.The truth is, it takes a lot longer than it seems like it should- 6 months or more. When you make something with molding, you only get one shot at getting the design right, so you have to think through lots of aspects that aren’t immediately apparent or else changes get expensive! Adventure starts with a passion for the unknown, and we believe a willingness to explore can happen in your own neighborhood or across the world. That willingness comes from confidence in yourself and dependable equipment, and when you have it, you can cross the continent or get lost going to get milk."

I filed for a patent in 2009, and started selling in 2010. Ten years have flown by- every year has had challenges and opportunities and 2020 appears to be no different. As for inspiration, thoughts, and ideas, something inside me always is looking at things asking how they could be better. On a personal level, that is both a blessing and a curse. In motorcycle mirrors, I feel I started in a target-rich environment for improvement.

Double Take folding motorcycle mirrors use standard RAM 1″ ball mounts as pivot points on the extension arm for maximum adjustability and impact resistance. 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.

X1 RAM-B-349U - Stud Ball Base. Thread is 10mm x1.25 pitch (standard for ktm/husky/Suzuki/Yamaha/Honda) This kit includes everything needed to put one rearview mirror and two side mirrors on your UTV/Side-by-Side: Recommended for applications where mirror will be most often folded (Dual Sport and Trail applications).

That it could fold completely out of the way, safe from giving or receiving damage when offroad and, How long did it take from the original idea, to design, to prototype, to the final product on the shelf? Finally, there is the Trail, which is our smallest offering. As the name implies, I made this for bikes that are all about off-road, and I think it works much better than you would expect from such a small reflector. Doubletake Mirrors was born when my passion for riding met my frustration with bad mirrors. One night I had an otherwise minor crash and the OEM mirrors broke both master cylinders on my KTM 950, and I thought “there has to be a better way”.

Perfect on bikes like BMW GS, KTM LC8, Honda Africa Twin, KLR 1 Universal Mirror. Choose proper adapter if needed. Beyond that, there is a lot of tape on my shop floor from testing the field of view in different configurations, and a few funny stories, like the time we hit the mirror with a baseball bat because we couldn’t stand the thought of dropping the bike to test durability. The mirror survived just fine, by the way.

This brand new version of the incredibly successful Double Take Mirror made specifically for the Adventure Bikes that spend more time on the tarmac. Less vibration and more solid fixing to stop the mirror moving at high speed due to wind blast Not as much as you might think. Of course, we use CAD/CAM to design our parts, and 3D printing to test models, but beyond that, our products are pretty old school. Here’s the production area, where we assemble glass into housings and prepare shipments to make their way out into the world. We are so thrilled to be somewhere with good light and clean surfaces.
