The Mirrors are not adjustable. Don't think it would help improve the rear view much anyway. But when you have a lovely lady on the back why would you want to? :D

Don't know about the 750, but the mirrors on my 907 do have some adjustability in them... the plastice the glass is mounted on is on a pivot. It's hard to move, but they will move

Yes, I've had one of those pods apart and the mirrors are adjustable. Not easily, and it's not a great design (for more reasons than just adjustability) but they do pivot around in there.

Now you have got me thinking, as mine do not move if I can get them off can I free them up with a good soaking of freeing agent. So how do they come off, do I have to take the nose cone off? or can I get to some bolts by removing the front side panels?

So the Paso mirrors actually ARE adjustable????????????? :confused:
Well bugger me! :eek: I have looked long & hard at mine & summised that they were just glued straight to the pod itself. I have even prodded & poked at them just to make sure. My old K100RS had the similiar Pod set up with indicators & mirrors in the one unit but they were easily moveable & there was room about the recessed mirror.
I have not removed the pods to check from behind but there does not seem to be any room about the recessed Paso mirror for it to move. I had better try again & carefully (& nervously)push a bit harder.

It is not actually going to make much difference though is it?
:D

As I told, all MY 750 Paso:s and 907IE:s ORIGILAL mirrors are adjustable! I am 110% sure about it. Remembering, that U have to take blinker lens and bulb holder, etc. first away, then You can see some screw there(what is very often rusted) and hold another hand in mirror side and turn that screw open. If U managed that, then U can take mirror away and then You see that adjusting system: There is metal/plastic ball joint, what is just that adjusting. Normally that ball joint is stucked, if havent move it for long time. But DONT take that ball joint open, cause that plastic have hardened, so that plastic gets broken very easily, what happened to me one time and i had to glue that ball joint ..... Better sparay some thin lubrication inside that ball joint and start to move mirror little by little..... Was this enough badly explained??? :thumbup:

In answer to your question the answer is yes!!
But I do understand.

Just had to rush out and have a look! I see that the ball joint is part of the mirror glass mounting. Got it soaking now.

Thanks
