SBD762 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Has anybody ( for those with Aeroscreen) shortened or lengthened the centre mirror stem? Of course. I could remove it completely - I have side mirrors. However I would like to have a centre Mirror. Mine is in my direct eye-line and causes all sorts of issues for night driving. Question: Is there shorter or longer stem available in the market place? If so can you point me in the direction of a supplier please? Or Have you cut one down, if so, any issues,any tips? Or Have you extended one, if so ..... Ditto above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative Paul Richards Posted July 10, 2014 Area Representative Share Posted July 10, 2014 Just about to shorten one. Proposing to cut base off, shorten stem and re-weld to base. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k.russell Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Used to run a longer one before I had a cage, sold it on. Had it welded up with a longer tube, could have done with some supports to stop a little vibration at speed.

ECR Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I ran one, much as Kev shows in his photo, in order to reveal the nearside wheel during cornering. I inserted a threaded bush halfway up and using nylon ball joints and threaded rod, triangulated it back down to the scuttle to eliminate vibration Edited by - ECR on 10 Jul 2014 19:18:35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBD762 Posted July 10, 2014 Author Share Posted July 10, 2014 Thanks for the good response. Paul I'd be interested to see your end result. Any chance of a pic when you have completed it please? Likewise daytime vision obscures the near side wheel as well as my night time issue Lengthening it looks the easier way to go, although I think lowering would achieve a better aesthetic look for me. I'll await your photo Paul! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
