A rearview mirror includes a mirror frame and a mirror mount. The end of the mirror frame, which is connected to the mirror mount, is formed with a through hole. The mirror mount has an upper mount and a lower mount. The upper mount is pivotedly connected to the mirror frame and has a shrunk section. The lower mount has a receiving hole for being inserted by the shrunk section.

A computer-implemented method for image recording includes receiving images of an environment surrounding a motorcycle from an imaging device disposed in a front section of the motorcycle. The imaging device is directed rearward with respect to the front section of the motorcycle. The method includes detecting a reflected image region in the images. The reflected image region is reflecting off a reflective surface worn by an operator of the motorcycle. The method includes detecting a front object in the environment surrounding the motorcycle based on the reflected image region.

A bicycle mirror device is provided for rear viewing of traffic when a bicycle rider is in different riding positions. The bicycle mirror device includes a mounting bracket, attached to a bicycle helmet or eye glasses, and mirrors pivotally mounted to the mounting arms. The mounting arms may be attached to the helmet or eye glasses through an extension arm connected to the helmet or eye glasses through a quick-connect system. A method for using the bicycle mirror device includes mounting the mirror device on a helmet or eye glasses, rotating a first mirror to view a first rear-view angle for a cyclist in a low riding position, rotating a second mirror to view a second rear-view angle for the cyclist in an upright riding position, and viewing a plurality of rear view angles without readjusting the first or second mirror.

A straddle type vehicle includes a side mirror with which a rider confirms a rear side; a detection unit configured to detect another vehicle in a periphery of a self-vehicle; and a display unit configured to display a detection result by the detection unit. The display unit displays the detection result at a position within a contour of the side mirror and on an inner side in a vehicle width direction. In a case in which the another vehicle is detected by the detection unit, the display unit displays a color different from a display color of the detection result in a peripheral portion of a display region of the detection result.

An omni-directional self-orienting structure for a motorcycle, ATV, UTV, off road vehicle, snowmobile, bicycle or other vehicle. The structure extends from the vehicle and will deflect or breakaway under an applied force such as an impact, for example by a tree branch strike or crash. The structure can re-position and re-orient itself once the force is removed. Examples of the structure are hand guards, side mirrors, turn signals, extended lights, mounts and antennas. Apparatus and method claims are provided.

A saddle-type vehicle is equipped with a rearview mirror. The rearview mirror includes a stay extending from a vehicle body outward in a vehicle width direction, and a housing connected to an extending end portion of the stay and extending outward in the vehicle width direction, the housing including a mirror body. The housing further includes an upper wall and a lower wall which are arranged at positions overlapping each other in the vertical direction of the vehicle body. The upper wall has an upper outer surface portion whose length in a front-rear direction is shorter than the length of a lower outer surface portion of the lower wall in the front-rear direction, as viewed in a cross-sectional view perpendicular to the vehicle width direction.
