what up guys it's Adrian from YouMotorcycle and in today's video i'm
going to be sharing with you guys three reasons why i absolutely love yup
that's me hey there can you see me? why i absolutely love these really cheap
$18 mirrors by Issyauto that i found on
amazon. Now two things to note for full
disclosure: thing number one is issyauto did send these to me for
free to review, so is there some bias in there?
Well I'm gonna try and be honest but you know take a grain of salt, and
thing number two is that these are not
heavy-duty hardcore mirrors so if you're looking for a
mirror for maybe just something like this cafe
racer that you just need to make it legal or something like that they're
they're awesome, but if you're looking for I don't have a
super sport to show you right now but if if you're looking to be going really
crazy highway speeds you're going to want something that's
probably a little bit more sturdy than this
for highway riding. It this is not like some
180 dollar mirror where it's going to be very little vibration. You're going to
see a lot of vibration at high speeds it's the nature of the beast but you're
going to spend a tenth of the price and they're still going to work for like 90%
of your riding so yeah anyway without spoiling too much this is my review of
the issy auto $18 mirrors from Amazon and why I think
you might actually want to buy these. The first reason why i really like
these issy auto mirrors is honestly you know like i said are
they going to vibrate on the highway? Yes. Are they going to cost you
one-tenth of the price of some mirrors that won't vibrate?
Yes. So the price, number one reason to buy these
is they are just damn cheap even if you did break one if you're gonna use it for
off-road application where you just wanted to see if the rest
of your gang was riding up behind you or not
they're great if you drop it if you crack it who cares you still got the
other one 18 bucks for a pair you can't go wrong
at that price. I consider that price point a solid win for a rider
who's just looking for a cheap economical pair of
mirrors. Second reason why i really like these is they
are super adaptable so obviously you just have your standard issue mirror
rotating stuff to get the right angle i think that this stock is really a good
common length so that you can see over your shoulders
on a lot of different bikes because i've kind of
played around with that. The other thing to note is this is an eight millimeter
thread which means that this will fit that bike
and that bike and that bike and possibly even that bike
and then i have another bike over here which is a little e-bike and it'll fit
that bike too. Eight millimeter it's not quite fully
like universal not everybody uses them sometimes
Yamaha does some weird crazy backwards stuff but for the most part this will
fit damn near everything and if i had a
couple atvs this would these would fit on there too so that's
excellent. And in case you get something where they don't
fit they actually ship with these this is just a clamp that goes around your
handlebar so what happens is you loosen these off you clamp it around
your handlebar like here and then this gives you an
eight millimeter thread right up here at the top. Long story
short, second reason why i love these mirrors
is adaptability you can really make them work for a lot of applications
to me that's perfect. The third and final reason why i like these
mirrors is because they just they just work. Everything about them is
just really functional, super super quick and easy to install,
there we go, all you really need is an adjustable wrench but i can
also just tell you to use a 14mm is going to work perfectly too.
So again we just line that in there
i think that's good
and just like that your mirrors are installed i guess now the only thing i
have to do is show you guys how this thing
looks at around 20 miles per hour
not bad
all right so after doing a couple miles with these issyauto mirrors yeah they're
they're totally good enough for exactly what i need them for
uh would i use them on the highway, would I trust them?
Probably not i just know they're going to vibrate a lot which is fine like
honestly, even this bike that was like when it was
new was a $15 000 bike these mirrors are all vibraty on the
highways so can't really expect much more better for $18 but
honestly i was going over all kinds of bumps all kinds of speed bumps
I was definitely trying to get all of the potholes
instead of trying to avoid them, and I didn't really have to adjust
the mirrors much once i got them kind of lined up to
how and where i wanted them they were fine, so these mirrors for 18 bucks if
you're looking for something that's not going to be going on a super sport and
going at like hyper speeds and you need race level
performance these are these are great i would definitely
recommend them if you need a super cheap plastic pair of inexpensive mirrors.
Are they the most beautiful? No. The most sporty? No. From a very
functional efficiency standpoint: top-notch good stuff and they shipped
and packaged them super super carefully so everything was great.
That's it from me, guys. Stay tuned for more hopefully more
interesting motorcycle reviews. Thank you guys, peace!
