Reply to "2017 Spa Classic in Pantera"

One more modification I thought of during the many km's to Spa. With my hi CHI intake and the filter not being able to be lowered more and still have the needed 3/8" clearance to the tubes, it's hard to see what's behind me. I can see the face of the driver in a normal car, if there's a Pantera behind me, I'll never know.

So I moved the mirror up. It's alu so I couldn't cut and weld, so I grinded off alu for the front part of the base. This lifts the arm going forward. Before I could get almost two fingers in between arm and windshield, now only one. This means that the mirror is moved a bit up and that I can now see "down" over the filter, not just horizontal.

If you do this, take care not to crack windshield when installing, the arm is now closer to the windshield.

Mirror shown where the right part of the bracket is a few mm lower than originally
