Mirror Mirror...

Not sure on the thread, but have OEM bar end mirrors. Work great and look good as well.

 

I second bar end mirrors

 

Hi Daniel,

Now I know that feeling, especially in the depths of winter when some bling/fettling on the bike is needed in place of actually being able to enjoy riding it!

This is also a subject I can relate and contribute too! They are 10mm thread. I think when I was looking 8mm are for Yamaha (and others?).

My bike had a very nice pair of bar end mirrors on when I bought it but whilst they looked great, they did let me down on the function side of being a mirror... They also caught on the knuckle protectors on my thicker gloves so I decided to try a change. I ordered a few cheap pairs to have a try with. I did like the function of one pair (with a set of extenders) as they gave a great rear view but under the pressure of speed (no more than 70mph of course...) they loosened themselves off (despite lots of tightening and threadlock) so they had to go. I am currently settled on these Bike-It F3 Carbon mirrors. For me they are a good balance of looks and rear view (although admittedly small and some elbow viewing) and are holding position well. It is a personal choice though so I am not sure that I would 'recommend' them.

I was interested in the new Triumph Sport Tiger mirrors but they are rather expensive...

I hope this helps. Let me know how you get on.

Cheers!

Sam

 

Those looks like a nice set of bar ends mate. Also, Daniel must be short for Danielle, on account of your “sticky snatch”

 

I have bar end mirrors, and think they are a revelation after donkeys years of lookin at mi elbows. They were on mi bike when I got it, and the only downside is you have to be a bit careful when tha filtering. Since my little "off" at work, I replaced t'round ones for some shaped 'uns, wi blue tinted glass. I wunt recommend t'tinted glass, it meks everythin look dark.
