So in the last 2 weeks or so I have been testing the mirrors and resolving the non standard hardware I had used in the previous prototypes. This resulted in some small adustments in the programming. I was attempting to make sure that most people could install these themselves without too much hassle. I have had these things apart so many times that I just assumed anyone else could do the same with some basic mechanical skills.
I contacted Droptrarotter and asked him if he would test a set for me. See if he could convert the mirrors and get them on his bike and to give me feedback. I sent him a set without too much instructions and DT reported to me that he was having some issues with the conversion. Now DT is a mechanical genius (which I didn't know at the time) We went back and forth with emails, I made a video and sent it to him and tried to replicate what he was experiencing.
Turns out that the problem was with the screws and type of nuts I chose. When pivoting the mirror repeatedly the locknut would loosen some. This was not in its normal usage but needed to be corrected. Changed the locknut from a nylock to a stover and changed one flat washer to a larger one, and changed the base screws to stainless. It also does take a little more than average mechanical skill to convert these.
DT will do a write-up later as he has left on a bicycle tour. Thanks DT for the feedback so I could get them perfected.
So tomorrow the 1st production run of 10 sets will begin and should be completed early next week.
I have recieved a several PM's from interested parties. I have negotiated a deal with the local dealer to get a discount on the S1000 mirrors if don't already have them. I will offer the mirrors already converted, so you can just bolt them on or just the brackets if you want to do it yourself. I am still settling on the pricing but it will be reasonable.
If you are interested send me a PM so I can get an idea of quantity of mirror/brackets or just brackets.
No other photos, because they essentially the same as what I have posted. Also will cross post this on BMWSR.
Thanks
