Mirror set -OEM QUALITY- with E-mark- M8 right-hand thread (rhs with left-hand thread)

FAQ:

Why threads with different directions of rotation?

The biggest advantage of a right-hand thread on the right-hand side and a left-hand thread on the left-hand side is that the mirrors can no longer be loosened by the airstream at higher speeds.

A left-hand thread on the right-hand side and a right-hand thread on the left-hand side offer the advantage that in the event of a fall, the mirrors can come loose
, thus minimizing damage to the mirrors or their threads.

As there is no regulation of the mirror threads, these should always be checked before ordering.

TIP

When fitting mirrors, a little grease on the threads can make subsequent removal much easier.
