Some motorcycle riders think that they don't need to adjust the rearview mirror. Because their speed is faster than the people and vehicles around them. In order to show this, some people simply remove the rearview mirror or turn it upside down to face the front. Maybe, this is feasible in some places, but it is not safe. According to statistics, a large proportion of motorcycle traffic accidents are caused by collisions with the rear vehicle or vehicles coming from the rear. Therefore, the correct adjustment of the motorcycle rearview mirror plays a very important role in the personal safety of the rider. Different types of rearview mirrors have different adjustment methods. At present, the most common motorcycle rearview mirror on motorcycles is fixed by two interlocking nuts. To adjust such a rearview mirror, you need a suitable wrench.
First, place the rearview mirror in the middle of the end of the mirror arm. In this way, once the position of the mirror arm is determined, the reflector can have the greatest adjustment possibility. Then, loosen the nut with a wrench to leave a certain gap between the two nuts that are locked to each other. Please note that if your bike has special treatments such as chrome plating, please put a layer of paper or cloth between the wrench and the nut to avoid scratching the surface.
Now, the rider can sit on his motorcycle. If there is a center stand or someone to hold you, it would be great. If not, lean against the wall on the other side and start adjusting the mirror arm. Until you reach your ideal field of view and position.
