HALCYON Mirrors & Replacement Parts in 60's repro style - Made in Great Britain, in highly polished stainless steel.
The MOD scene is experiencing a strong revival worldwide - and classic 60's details such as mirrors and lamps are simply part of the contemporary Vespa look for many. HALCYON delivers exactly this look: Mirrors, mirror arms and Number Plate Holders in authentic 1960s repro style, manufactured in Great Britain.
The mirrors come from the STADIUM Factory in Caerphilly, which enjoyed a high level of popularity in the British two-wheeler scene back then as well as today. Made from highly polished stainless steel in heavy quality, they represent the typical look of the era. The range extends from handlebar end mirrors and Clamp On Mirrors for Legshields to variants with clamps for tubular handlebars or front Luggage Carriers. There are also versions for attaching to Mirror Rods using clamps.
Conclusion: A harmonious accessory for classic Vespas from the 50s to 70s - particularly suitable for MOD and 60s styles.
Good to know: Mirror legislation
Older vehicles that do not possess an EU registration, require a minimum reflection area of 60cm² (just over 9in.²) on each of their mirrors. An European approval emblem is not absolutely necessary. Current scooter models are all registred according to EU legislation. The mirrors that are attached to them must have EU approval markings.
Mirrors that have less than a 60cm² reflection area or no EU approval markings are not meant for (leagal) road use.
The minimum number of mirrors required depends on the first day of registration
- before 01.01.1990 1 right hand mirror
- since 01.01.1990 max. speed under 100 km/h 1 right hand mirror
- since 01.01.1990 max. speed over 100 km/h a mirror each side
* "registered according to EU legislation" are vehicles since 01.10.2005. Check your registration certificate for the EU entry (digit K).
