DescriptionThe whole story▼

The DesertX was styled around the Cagiva Elefant and built to be ridden off tarmac, which means its mirrors spend part of their life being knocked, folded and reset. A mirror on this bike is a consumable unless it is built not to be.

Key Features

  • Clamp holds its setting under airflow
  • Glass positioned to clear the rider's shoulder
  • Stem deforms under impact rather than shearing
  • CNC-machined aluminium stem, matt black
  • Shaped mirror head, not a moulding
  • European type approval E1*81R00/02*0143

Machined Stem

Aluminium cut from solid rather than cast, with a shaped head and a matt black finish. The point is not weight but that the stem bends rather than snaps and can be straightened by hand.

Standing Changes the View

Off the seat the rider's head rises by thirty centimetres or more, and the original mirrors show sky. A glass set lower and further out stays useful in both postures rather than only one.

Retro Styling, Current Hardware

The DesertX leans on its heritage visually. A machined matt-black mirror fits that without the plastic look of the factory item.

Road Approval

Approved for road use in Europe under E1*81R00/02*0143, issued against UN Regulation 81 for rear-view mirrors. Nothing needs entering in the vehicle documents.

Scope of Delivery

Delivered per side. Left and right are separate items with their own part numbers, so a pair or a single replacement are equally straightforward.
