In racing, fractions
of a second sometimes matter, which is why every minute detail is of
high significance. The design of the STEALTH rear-view mirror merges
racing experience with aeronautical inspiration. It is specially
designed for supersport motorbikes and has been technically optimised
for this use. It fascinates with a slender language of form and a
functionality that is impressive in its logic. Consisting of two
parts, the mirror features a fixed part that attaches directly to the
fairing and a movable part that acts as the mirror glass holder.
Milled from one piece of billet aluminium, it showcases a convex
glass surface
to provide a surprisingly wide viewing angle despite its small size.
A simple
movement allows aligning the two
parts, making the closed mirror adopt the function of an aerodynamic
wing with
a 25-degree angle relative to the ground, which contributes to a new,
sleek and aggressive look for the sportbike. At
the same time, this generates downforce and in turn improves the
bike’s grip and handling especially at high speed. The downforce
pressure achieved is around 4 kg at 300 km/h. The fixed part of this
rear-view mirror has been designed and aerodynamically matched to fit
specific fairing models, while the movable part is the same for all
fairings.
