Folding mirrors
The mirrors on my PCX keep moving whilst riding, I think this is because I have to fold them in to get through my garden gate, are there any good quality folding mirrors suitable for fuss free riding even though I have to fold them in after every ride, thanks

Re: Folding mirrors
I was hoping changing the mirrors would be an easier than knocking down walls

Re: Folding mirrors
I have a similar problem. I have to go in at an angle and turn the bars slightly to get through.

Re: Folding mirrors
I don't know where you reside ricky ,but member ahmadmatjan sells folded LED mirrors. I would love a pair myself, but he is far far away. Would cost me many U.S. Dollars to arrive at my door.
You may be closer?

Yep, folded mirrors would be a great convenience to have when storing your bike. Just fold those ears out of harms way

Re: Folding mirrors
I'm in Wales U.K. I've been hunting around eBay but unsure of the quality, pointless having good looking ones if they vibrate so much you can't see behind you...

Re: Folding mirrors
We fold our mirrors in to get through our gate also. I carry an adjustable wrench to tighten them down just before i ride. I put the wrench under the seat, wrapped in a paper towel so it won't rattle while i ride. It has come in handy because the mirrors sometimes vibrate loose while riding. It only takes a moment to stop and tighten it. I have also used the wrench to tighten other things that have come loose. It is just nice to have some tools for minor inconveniences.

Re: Folding mirrors
They cost a bit , but look at " Double Take " mirrors .
Look at the Motorcycle Superstore or Bike Bandit . There are cheeper alternatives out there , just can't remember the names . The above mirrors and vendors are used frequently by the TW200 riders .

Re: Folding mirrors
Forgot to add , figure out what size threads the pcx mirrors use and be sure to specify , right hand or left handed threads when ordering.
