I did not picture how they worked at first. Now I can see the advantage, when entering the Kookaloo zone of tunnel vision causing speed, they allow the mirrors to fold back under the brutal force of air pressure, allowing for less drag and even more speed. No point in looking behind you at that speed. If anything can keep up, you really don't want to know any way.

I still have 2 sets. I seem to have lost some pics. I made these and they are tapped on the one end for CBR mirrors. Thanks
