Some motorcyclists think 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 take off the rearview mirror, or face forward in reverse, even though it is installed, so as to express themselves. Maybe, in some places, it is feasible, but it is not safe. According to statistics, a large proportion of motorcycle traffic accidents are caused by collisions with rear vehicles or vehicles coming from the rear.
Therefore, correct adjustment of motorcycle rearview mirror plays a very important role in knight's personal safety.
Different types of rearview mirrors have different adjustment methods. At present, the most common motorcycle rearview mirror on motorcycles is interlocked and fixed by two nuts. To adjust such a rearview mirror, a suitable wrench is needed.
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 mirror can have maximum adjustment possibility.
Then, loosen the nut with a wrench, leaving a certain gap between the two locked nuts. Please note that if your car is chrome plated and other special processes, please put a layer of paper or a piece of cloth between the wrench and the nut to avoid damaging the surface.
Now, knights can ride on their motorcycles. It would be great if you had a middle support or someone could support you. If not, lean the other side against the wall, and then start to adjust the mirror arm. Until you reach your ideal vision and position.
Motorcycles are different from cars. In addition to the rear-view mirrors on both sides, cars also have middle rear-view mirrors. If properly adjusted, the driver can see everything behind him completely. However, motorcycles don't have middle rearview mirrors, and even if the left and right rearview mirrors are in the so-called best motorcycle rearview mirror position, there are blind spots.
Therefore, in order to ensure their own safety during riding, knights must always check their shoulders.
In the process of riding, the knight must fully understand the traffic conditions behind him and on his left and right sides. Therefore, our suggestion for rearview mirror adjustment is that one side can see behind yourself, while the other side can see three quarters of the area behind yourself.
After confirmation, re-lock the nut.
However, when changing lanes, we should pay attention to the inspection of "shoulders".
Some models have reached a certain speed, and the rearview mirror is blurred because of excessive vibration. At this time, you can try to add thick rubber gasket or professional damping module to the installation position of the rearview mirror to reduce the impact of vibration.
