Here are the mirrors I picked up for $14 ea. at a local bicycle shop. Cheap plastic but they're light and look ok.

Have you ridden the bike since installing? How's the vibration on such light mirrors? Look pretty cool...

they vib much more that the stockers and certain speeds, and for some reason the right hand is WAY worse. They way they're positioned you I can extend my middle finger and dampen it anough to see what's behind me. I can also mouht these above, and get rid of the "L" brakcet so they go stright up from the barend. This is what my buddy did on his buell.

Hey, I have one of those exact miirors in my garage from my mountain bike. I was thinking of trying it out on my bike, but I like the end-caps on my Isogrips too much. Looks good though!

Ron,


Ummm... encouraging people to steal bandwidth is not cool. When people leech photos from my site, I replace the originals with disgusting penis pericings, Tubgirl or Goatse pictures. They don't often do it twice.
