Doubletake Adventure style mirrors

Danimal · 11-14-2015, 03:15 PM

Did a few things to the RX today preparing for a ride tomorrow.
The 35w bulb CSC sent to replace the stock bulb (low beam blew) was feeble. So I installed a Sylvania Ultra 55/60W H4.
Used a Dremel cut off wheel to make a series of gill cuts on the rear bottom to hopefully help with whatever additional heat is created.
Removed the stock mirrors (my left mirror was always loose) and installed the Ram balls on the bottom. No flats for a wrench, so used a dab of blue loctite and narrow vice grips to tighten.
Then the 6" Ram arms and the mirrors

Folded in for woods riding

And removed the stupid Speed decals. MUCH better

Also got a SAE to lighter plug adaptor so now my portable compressor is in the RX tool mix. Along with tire irons, patch kit and two spare tubes I think that's covered.
Supposed to be sunny and 60 tomorrow. Oh boy!
