NEW GENUINE RIZOMA STEALTH AERODYNAMIC MIRRORS - PAIR (BLACK). Dual functionality: when open, it's a rear-view mirror, when closed it becomes an aerodynamic wing. Out of the interface between racing experience and aeronautical inspiration comes a new mirror: Stealth, an accessory specifically designed for supersport bikes. It consists of a fixed part, designed speficially for the bikes fairing, and a movable part, which acts as a mirror glass holder.
Thanks to a rotating system with a simple twist the two parts get alligned: in the closed position the mirror becomes an aerodynamic foil. While the mirror glass holder is always the same, the fixed component is designed ad hoc for each supersport bike for which Stealth was developed, looking for the best solution to match the relative aerodynamic results. Made of billet aluminium, the Stealth mirror has a convex glass surface to provide a wider viewing angle, and the mirror body is available in three different anodised colours. Rizoma recommends, in combination with Stealth, it's Light Unit turn signals (part FR070BM) and the S1000RR specific mounting kit (FR442B) allowing the front indicators to be discretely repositioned.Stealth's design, with its wing-like shape and 25° angle relative to the ground, give it a striking linear look, reminiscent of the Stealth fighter whose name it bears. This angular shape and angle of attack ensures it generates downforce pressure of around 4 kg at 300 km/h. When in "mirror" mode, ergonomics have been optimised as well: when the rider assumes a racing tuck the mirrors are aligned with the rider's eye level. In this way, the rider does not have to raise his position to get a decent rear view, keeping the head tucked in and out of the airflow. What are the benefits of the mirrors generated downforce in aerodynamic wing-mode?
See what Lucio Cecchinello thinks. Increased grip enables better acceleration. Air brake effect helps reduce braking distances. Greater downforce makes corner entry easier and helps maintain corner speed. In racing conditions the front tyre gets up to optiumum temperature more quickly.TO FIT - BMW S1000RR 2019-20.
