They came from cycle gear, just the handle grip had to be trimmed

Nice license plate mount... how do you like it???

 

[EtrnlSoldier]

Those mirrors look nice. I'm looking on the Cycle Gear web site and don't see them. Got a link or part number?

love the all black! i got blockoffs as well, love the bike with no mirrors, where did you get your tag bracket?

 

[BusaBlue]

Sharp looking. Like the black.

i like having mirrors, but i think lower and a little more sleek would look better on the bike.

 

[00busaMan]

It looks good man agree with Ogre lower it and would improve the look...also nice mirros on the blue busa

I like the look too - but I trailer a lot and getting the handlebar sling over the bars would mean removing the mirrors every time.....how hard are they to remove?

i like em,, i'm just worried thay my wrists would bump em or block my view. any probs with that.

I went with a reasonably priced pair of bar end mirrors and they rock. They swivel and can adjust them to see behind great. I used an aluminum spacer so the factory 6mm bolt would hold the mirror 8mm hole to the bar end.

All I saw with my factory mirrors was my shoulders when I rode.

 

[RMS2005]

wow, alot better than I expected. lookin good.

 

[schroetf]

what kind are they-looks like you had to do some surgery-how did you make them fit?

 

[Greenbean]

I am digging it.

 

[305 axe]

Good looking bike.

I like the look.

I looked at the flip-in bar end mirrors a long while ago but I just could justify the costs. Where did you pick those up from?

On a different note, who did your swing arm?

Ebay for the mirrors, $35 bucks or so.

The swingarm is a 4" arm from Trac. I asked that Dave send it raw because I had it powdercoated locally. Im glad I went with 4 and not 6. I think 6 looks better but I ride pretty twisty roads up here and already scraping the sato pegs.. some corners. All in all it's a good balance between street and the occasional trip to the strip wich is not very bike friendly

The mirrors have about 4000 miles on them and are still in good shape. I had to use a aluminum spacer to make them fit flush. Basically there meant for hollow bar ends found on the gsxrs so they supply a 8mm mounting bolt. Well I drilled out a 8mm- outer diameter spacer for the busa's 6mm Inner Dia mouting bolt. After the lock tite, they dont spin around on the bar end.

I can take a picture of the set up if you want?

blurry but you get the idea
