Help with mirrors...

[COMick]

I am installing a new set of the Triumph tear drop mirrors on my r3t. I put on the right side mirror and it will not adjust high enough for me to see more than the ground right behind me...? I am 6'5" tall and I dont see any other way to adjust these mirrors. I have tried adding the original fit ring back in plus the new one and it raised it a little, but not enough for these to be useful.

Has anyone else had this problem? Any tricky fixes for it from the captains out there would be a great help.

Thanks

What about loosening off and moving your switch block ?

I lit a cigar, sat down and looked at it for a while and solved the problem by rotating my handlebars up just a little.

Now they look great.

That works too ... lol

I agree wholeheartedly with every thing said here.

With a cigar and some brandy you would have thought of it quicker!
