Hi Scrambler folks,

I really don't know the proper way to tighten my mirrors. They seem to come loose more often than I'd like and getting them tight is always an ordeal, and usually done by someone else. Can someone confirm before I go on a solo 3-day ride: to tighten do I tighten LEFT, not right for both mirrors?

Thanks for helping me out. My biggest nightmare is them coming loose and I'm on the road unable to figure it out. Note: NOT a wrencher.

I removed my mirrors a while ago but I'm guessing the threads will be different on each side - mainly so they tighten 'with the wind' rather than against, if you catch my drift?

The left side mirror is usually a reverse thread so you you operate the wrench anticlockwise to tighten the retaining nut,
