Straight Bolt on Alternative Mirrors/ Fiddly mirrors

[rbaron25]

Righto chaps. After doing a bit of searching I am still no closer to the holy grail.
I am searching for mirror alternatives. The ones I have found out about are the SV1000 mirrors and also the GS500 mirrors are a straight swap for them. SZR mirrors and possibly the R1/R6 mirrors.
What I would like to know is exactly what year/model are the straight bolt on no stuffing around mirrors and pics if anyone has them on (link) or the drill another hole, etc mirrors year/model? Just to narrow it down a bit and get a good comparison. Tried some old links like the MandP one with no luck. Any straight bolt on good aftermarket mirrors would be good too.

Hope not asking for the kitchen sink....

Cheers

Copies of the standard mirrors, I have some of these and they are alright.

I have a set of F3 carbon look euro jobbies on mine, much like the ones DAYS had on his.
I've also got a set of Oberon adjustable barends that are good (perfect condition, until they got grazed when my mechanic took my bike for a test ride ). They look good BUT you can see very little out of them.

Got the carbon jobs but couldn't see much out of them put the standard ones days left for me back on which is better but still not what I am after...

I got some nylon and made some spacers for the standard mirrors, fit the spacers to the base of the mirror with longer bolts and now can see behind me - always a good thing

Nice job on the spacers.

neat job on the spacers, low rent version is take a hacksaw and file to a block of 25mm black nylon

Could put longer bolts on and use original rubber spacer but put mine straight in at the minute.

I just bought a set for an SV1000 that look exactly like that shape in gloss black and intergrated LED indicators. I just put a bit of shadow paint over the indicators so they weren't quite so lairy and 8mm longer bolts. Result ? Better rear vision, but the need to be realy tight or they move when hitting bumps in the road.

I bought these but do NOT recommend them. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Mirrors- ... ccessories

They are not bolt on. I tried drilling out the mirrors to fit but it was not really do-able. Real shame as they are fab for rear view. The TRX was too much for them though. On the maiden run the donk shook the shit out of them and one of the allen key bolts (not the fairing mount) worked itself free resulting in half the mirror heading downwards. I made the mistake of trying to catch said falling mirror with my knee, locking up the back wheel in the process, fishtailing to a stop on some loose gravel and then spending 5 minutes working out that the damn mirror had hit the kill switch on the way down. Still, managed to retrieve most of the pieces so not a complete loss.

Red Baron I'm really interested in your thoughts on the ones you got.
