Hey RicardoA!
These are not for me! My I don't like taking my eyes off the road for the stock mirrors! NEVER mind these, seems to me a cool factor only!?? I think your eyes are off the road to long, looking down in these?!? Plus......well, I done, sorry.
Peace Jeff

My bike had it when I bought it... I couldn't see anything with it. The first thing I did when I got the bike home was insall the factory mirrors.

I use them and they work great for me, let me know if you want one and I can get you a discount on one.

Forgive my ignorance.... but do you use just one? left handlebar?

How much is it?

[RC51Stunna]

I use one on mine, and would NEVER go back to those stock mickey mousers..

Hey JOHNNYRC, did you go and install your stock reflectors as well?
I mean, the only reason to take off your reflectors or the feelers on the pegs would be a cool factor... But how many people still have them? NONE accept maybe you!

I think the quality of the product is second to none, the improvement of the looks of the bike is HUGE, and if you can't utilize the bar end mirror with regular head checks, you should be concerned that youve got your eyes behind you WAY to much.
I think you can see perfectly out of them, and I like the positioning and not worrying about your arms and elbows getting in the way..

*I think it has to do with your age and riding ability.

Ahem. I guess I'm not cool. Who knew I had such a unique bike when I have not done a damn thing to it? But anyway, I already feel like my stock mirrors are too low. Wouldn't a bar-end mirror be much lower yet?

[RC51Stunna]

It has been my experience that on spirited rides, with stock mirrors, I have found myself looking behind me in convern for the riders who are following me, which is the LAST place you should be looking when your riding at any kind of pace.

It is lower, and you have to consciously look at the mirror to get your rear view, which I dont personally see as a bad thing. You can always see what you want to see though because your elbows/shoulders are never in the way.

The timing could not be better - I have a set of fairings that use the HRC frairing stay (one hole at the top of the upper fairing on each side). So I was looking at these as an alternative. I’m sure it will take some time to get use to them…

CBR400RR - I may take you up on your offer.

Original reflectors AND tractor fender in the rear.............. You might PM Greyhound. I saw them on his bike as well. They look sweet, IMHO and really clean the bike's appearence up....

I had the bar end mirrors on my Sv650. I learned that police lights behind you are hard to notice if you are watching the road.
