Challenging Dakar (And The Aftermarket Industry)
from The Lowdown Show - By ADVrider · host ADVrider.com
Mirrors on motorcycles are almost universally wretched. They either present you with a movie of your elbows or they whimper and fold at merely the thought of a twig brushing against them. Most of us just complain about them. A wonderful motorcycle with bad mirrors is dead to us. (Unless it’s Italian.) But one man with a similarly vexed history with the mirror put his foot down, drew a line in the sand and said "I will make a mirror that will change the way we look back on where we've just been.” (He didn’t actually say that.) His name is Ned Suesse, and his Doubletake mirrors never cease to amaze. Oh, and he’s a Dakar finisher, too! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
