And I'm curious again!!!

I would think a UTV would be easy to mount something inside where it should be relatively safe from damage.
Atv's that roll, all bets are off.

Be creative with mounting and try and keep the mirror in a place where you can see as well as either a safe location or using a break away system. I used a cheap bicycle mirror on my klr650 from a company called dual star, they attached to the bars and you looked under your arms to see behind you . Vision was surprisingly good and in too many crashes off road they never were touched because of the location. Now if you run a rear trunk that might not work but it is worth looking at.

Know that there may be more junk mirrors out there too and it is not based on price, I have used excellent $10 mirrors and found $150 mirrors useless . Be sure to look at the mirror in person to verify it has good vision before caring about looks.

The last thing I'm worried about is the safety of mounting one. If I am rolling over, I got bigger issues than that mirror. I'm sure I'll just get the stock Can-Am style and thread it in on the drivers side. I plan on mounting a small LED light on the left side that will turn with the bars.

Thanks, have to try harder to find those I guess. I've only seen the ones that have the mounting bands for a 'normal' handlebar.

Sorry for the hijack, OP!

Must not think much of your BIL. So what if he can keep up, if he runs into trouble he can't count on you to help him.

Fellow Wisconsinite here. I searched "mirrors" in the regulations, the only references to them are when measuring the width of the ATV/SXS.

They are calling these accessories "Not essential" so the way I read it they are not necessary.

As far as mirrors go, I have the Powermadds with the flip out mirrors. As others have said they are nice to have in a group, especially if we have the kids with us. Personally, I don't like the big stand off mirrors that BRP offers.

Should look up the legal definition of "Vehicle".

Oh I'm not worried at all there Sparky. It is literally not my problem. Just know that when you make a public statement, it's not a good look to get yer diaper in a twist when someone points out that yer kinda being a dick. Enjoy your ride.
