as yer know, i made a bit of a hash losing me rag with a l/h thread, oh how we laughed...
Any road, why is the right mirror on a l/h thread ----- A = in the event of an impact the mirror will unscrew without snapping the mounting.
All very good in theory, but when ducati use some gypsy magic type of loctite strong enough to maintain the earth on its axis....... its a no !!
the new bolt arrived, and its already pre coated with this mystical weld .... well, i,m tellin yer now its comin off... it can have a blob of med loctite and be thankful...
