Handlebar mirrors - 1/2/2008 12:39:44 PM    Ninjatronica   Posts: 4 Joined: 11/21/2007 Status: offline I keep seeing those mirrors that hook onto the handlebars. I wanna get rid of the ones on the fairing and use that style. I think it looks slick, but I'm wondering if I have to remove the handlebar weights. Do you get lots of vibration? Any other problems with using them? Post #: 1

Try looking at your thumb while you're riding to see what's behind you to see what I'm talking about. If aesthetics are more important to you, you may like it, but if functionality/safety is more of a concern you may not. _____________________________ Wisdom ceases to be wisdom when it becomes too proud to weep, too grave to laugh, and too selfish to seek other than itself. - Kahlil Gibran (in reply to Ninjatronica) Post #: 2

I know the handlebar mirrors on the Ducati Hypermotard are getting bashed by the press because you can't see out of them. Guess I'll have to try them and see...or not see...whichever the case may be.

(though, I'm not a huge fan of handlebar mirrors.) Looks too "cruiser-ish" for me. www.rizoma.com I'm not sure if you could adapt them to mount on the handebars, but these are my favorites......... < Message edited by Blue Fox -- 1/2/2008 5:20:57 PM > _____________________________ Want the LED headlamps? http://cbrforum.com/m_681535/tm.htm Powder Coating TOO!
