Motogadget recently released a new line pretty special mirrors that I thought I'd share. I know most Harley rider's don't care much about weight but I do, and I know several others on Dynas also do.
These are convex mirrors with NO GLASS. The reflective surface is coated aluminum. Beside the weight savings, this makes them first-surface mirrors, which also excites me. Look it up if that's Greek to you. Old school projector TV guys probably get it.
Anyway,
86 - 175 grams, depending on style.
Just one example. They have a couple dozen variations.
I weighed some of the mirrors I have on hand and came up with
Appearance aside (ugly!), the Doubletake 4"Enduro appears to be WELL over 200 grams. The replacement mirror section is listed as 196 grams and doesn't include the RAM clamp or ball mount. The dealer package of the complete mirror says 404 grams but that may include undefined packaging. 300+ seems reasonable.
The HDB seems to be integrated into their hand guards.
Both appear to be excellent solutions for ADV riders but I don't see them really ever entering the Harley world.
