Premium Member rustyshackles Posted January 5, 2019 Premium Member Share Posted January 5, 2019 I’m trying to remove stock throttle side mirror stem from mirror extender without success. I know the stem mount on handlebars is reverse threaded, anyone know if the bolt that extends from the highlighted silver bit also reverse threads into the stock “Y” mount? will try WD-40.

BBB Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 I thought all reverse threads had a line through the nut, like the stem mount has? In which case that one is normally threaded.

Supporting Member texscottyd Posted January 5, 2019 Supporting Member Share Posted January 5, 2019 @rustyshackles- I have a set of extenders that aren’t installed on the bike. I’ll take a look when I get back to the shop and see how they’re threaded... give me an hour or so. -Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
