Mirrors ?
« on: July 15, 2012, 06:41:08 AM »
The A50 that I recently bought has replacement cheap mirrors on it. So checking various wrecker sites I can see that there are plenty of "Right hand side" mirrors but hardly any lefts. :o This got me thinking, aren't these guys doing these ads wrong? I'm of the thought that the mirror heads are fully adjustable so that they are useable for both left and right sides, can somebody please confirm or dispute this?

Thanks in advance.

Tuko.

I believe you are looking at thread direction. Yamaha has "left hand" threads. Most of the other brands are "right hand" threads.

Especially on aluminum. Easy to strip that stuff. :'(
