Is the mirror rigid enough to handle high speed wind? Does it hold its "zero" or does it shift? Thanks in advance.

It depends on how much you tighten the screws. I have this mirror on my kx450f supermoto and even though the bike vibrates like crazy the mirror doesnt move at all. Ive had one on another bike well over 150mph and again it didnt move at all

Yes it withstood 140+ mph for me. You can also tighten down the pinch point where it swivels.

Not that I have ever exceeded the posted speed limit because that would be illegal... to answer your question the mirrors hold up fine at high-speed. They are very small though and it is hard to see what is actually in the mirror because of the size. If I had to do again I would buy a larger size

Yes, it handles hi speed excellently. You can actually adjust a tension screw that keeps the mirror where you want. It's worth it.

Mine does too...at around 60 mph. I take it off unless I specifically need it to cary something, otherwise it is off. It is easy to take it off and put back again. Alex

I don't really know what your asking but if your concerned about the antenna turning under heavy winds, it doesn't move at all.

there should be no blind spot looking forward. The mirror is very much to the side, only a few inches from the left eye (assuming North America). It's not like a car's review view mirror, as it is actually too close to focus on the mirror itself, but the image behind is very clear. I wouldn't ride without it. FYI, if you have a conventional bike helmet with the usual glossy plastic surface, the adhesive won't usually hold unless the place you put it is flat (which never happens in my experience). I have used 60 second epoxy, roughing up the helmet shell and bracket surface a bit for adhesion, and this works great. Also, I commonly have to trim the bracket, with scissors, to fit and look the best. there should be no blind spot looking forward.

It works pretty well as a mirror, it behaves as though you are looking through a tinted Window. I have no complaints.

the lashes dont move in the wind at all, the are very strong and stay put, we used a gorrilla glue inside the light to keep them that strong too. they dont bend backwards in the wind at all

You should contact the manufacturer to get specs on what MPH winds it has been tested to withstand. From my perspective, as an engineer, I think it is very sturdy. The main hinge is made out of sturdy aluminum and the two side support struts are made out of about 1/8" thick aluminum with sheet metal screws holding them on.

Yes everything moves. I have had other mirrors like this but this one is the best so far.

it is spring loaded to retract. you can open it at any time while attached to door or window. Therefore it would not hold back a door or window and could break in high winds. that would depend on the size of the door or window. I have it on a 2x3 plexiglass door on my cold frame and have not had any problems with gusty winds up to 20MPH

If you lay it down carefully it won't break but may be mal-adjusted when you go to use it. I lean the other side against a wall. Mine fell over in soft dirt and it survived with nothing but a bent screw. Keep in mind that this is so inexpensive that you can really afford to get a spare. It's is hands down the best mirror I have ever used. Fragile? Yes, but works so well!! You could always get some rebar and build a cage for it if you treat your bike like junk. That would save it.

It simply snaps into place. It holds firm, but you can remove it by snapping it off fairly easily without any tools. I've attached mine and removed it several times. I use mine to blur the propeller while flying with the camera on the outside of the aircraft. It holds firm under 100+ mph winds but can be removed easily when I don't need a filter.

No. I have not tested it at 60 MPH. I am guessing you have a 50/50 chance of it not falling off. Sorry, I can't do any better than this.

I can't imagine it could withstand wind, if it is above the windshield. I'm short and I like the way it makes the visor go further down the windshield and block the sun. The small piece can be moved back and forth for extra darkening. I like mine. Hope this answers your Q.

We have had storms here with wind gusts of 50-60mph and the solar cover stayed in place. You have to remember that the cover is sitting on the water surface so it gives it a little suction on the surface. Hope this helps. Claire

Yes, the mount holds the umbrella in place and is not affected by the wind. The clamps are very strong for both anchoring to the post on the deck and to the umbrella pole. The mount is a very heavy metal and is extremely well made.

You can tighten the mirror but not to the point that you cannot move the mirror. Mine stays where it is positioned, butit can be moved.

We live in Arizona where the winds getting pretty strong... so far it has not had a problem... you might want to use a wire coat hanger to keep the reflectors stiffer
