Yamaha Teloscopic Mirrors.

[yamagone]

Anyone using them? Do they work well? Do they look stupid? I can't come to grips drilling holes in the sled. Have any pics? Thanks in advance.

Well there are several pairs on Amazon if you want to try them and see. I don't think they look any worse than other mirrors

It would be sweet if they had something like the Doo's have on the windshields.

Well i used them and they do look cheesy.Was thinking about going back to the wrist mirror.

I think you would be much happier with a cat cross tour windshield w/ mirrors pre-drilled . I am .....

You know with so many of us running GPS I wonder if any of the GPS's would support a rear view camera? Switched that would be cool as heck!

Why are you guys so interested in who is behind you? If you are running hard there is no way your going to focus on a 3" or 4" GPS Screen!

I think even you will admit there is always someone faster out there. You know the guy you just can't shake. I met one last year in PA. He snuck by my buddy on Axys then was trying for me. I ran him quite a long way but started making mistakes and knew better so pulled off he passed and buddy tried to catch him but he said he was gone out of sight after second turn. Looked about 6'10" and on a Mustard Bucket! I was and always will be a B class racer not a A and surely not Pro. Oh and my daughter won't lead so mirror/camera would be nice for that!

Ha! Don't forget yamadog that not all of us are running 250+ hp and riding 300 miles a day! I'll admit that I have been passed on the trails before (of course I'll blame it on the slow group leader). In fact I wouldn't be surprised if it was you that passed my group last year up in the UP! .

I have the OEM telescopic mirrors, they work excellently IMO.

If you were riding within 100 miles of Newberry it was probably me. Ha ha ha.

Oops sorry if I was not courteous!!! LOL I usually beep the horn

I know I was just kidding I need mirrors at times too keep track of all of those riding with me.

Yes I will admit it and I usually find them!! I am no pro racer myself and also have been pushed to the limits by guys and just shut it down before I parked it in the woods! I too rode for year with my step daughter - proud to say at 13 she was riding an rx-1 but I also had a glove mirror and rode a bit more ........ sensibly

I have and love the Cross tour windy with the Mirrors and love it.
I seem to always lead my family / group rides and like to keep track of more than just the sled behind me. I have mirrors on all of our family sleds and have gotten spoiled by them.

Plus for some reason my neck doesn't turn like it used to, you young guys can laugh, as I used too, but welcome to the future. If you live long enough you get older. Hmmmmmmmmmm makes some sense. LOL
