Ducati Monster Forum

does anyone know of any other kinds of mirror u can put on this bike. im new to riding and these mirror are a little hard to see out of  but im getting use to it. just thought i find out if theres something i can do to help myself out a little bit

There are A LOT of options (do a search).  Bar ends seem to give you the most useful view but I don't think they look all that great.

My personal favorite:

Nooooooooooo dont buy those  ;)

what why not  [roll]

lol - coz I like being ....special..  :-[ [laugh]

Seriously, those Rizoma Radial Nakeds are my favourites too in terms of how they look  8).  But if you want mirrors that actually work then I never used anything better than Rizoma's Class Retro barends.

(http://www.pjsparts.com/catalog/images/5%20-%20Universal%20Other%20Parts/Mirrors%20&%20Mirror%20Hole%20Caps/Mirror%20Class%20Retro%20BS144.jpg)

Yeah I'm shallow - I dumped the functional Class Retros for the cool of the Radial Nakeds....   

i tried oberon end bar mirrors
(they kept moving about even with lock tight or gasket paste on the bolts)

I settled with these

which are much much better ...they don't move at all either they are as solid as rocks

With mirrors its a personal thing though i guess

I have one of these on the left side.

Works great.

I'll buy these mirrors for the the first 100 people, who live near ugenheuer, that reply to this thread.  ;D

Define "near" ;-)

I posted your generous offer over with our Oz Monsters >> http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=39362.0 (http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=39362.0) <<  Expect to be hearing from my neighbours real soon  ;D [thumbsup]

Gidday from Oz. I'd be happy to have a pair of these!!  [thumbsup] [thumbsup]

Thanks to Unge and Providius.  [bow_down] [bow_down]

I'm from down under as well ... I already have the Radial Naked's on my bike but the Boss still runs with some stock mirrors - the black and gold stemmed ones would work great on her Monster.

But since you are being so generous I could always do with a spare silver pair ... thank you muchly [thumbsup]

G'Day dragon and Betty, guys no need to thank me, all the thanks for providing this offer go to Povidius.... Catch you at the pub soon (seeing as you live so near to me, eh)  [thumbsup]

Wont say no. Love from down under.

Oh and thanks.

I wouldn't say no to a set of sexy Rizoma mirrors - and I live quite near Unge :)

g'day from sydney australia

ok maybe I am not as close as the others, but I am in the next state (sort of) - cheers from South Australia!!  [cheeky]

roxy would like some too!!! we are sort of close well I Tasmania is still part of Australia - anywhere in AUS is close when you have a Monster ;D

Nickati Is happy with a set, Cheers

Interest registering here. Everyone loves offers don't they.

I'll take free mirrors to Melbourne, AUS for a bike that I don't have yet as well  [thumbsup]

Hi From Wollongong Australia! (1 Hour south of Sydney)

Sounds interesting your offer!


Rob [thumbsup]

Unge mate how's it hangin
Put me down for set or mirrors ;D

I've been riding with Ungeheuer a couple of times.  Do I qualify? 

Count me in. Those Rizomas are really nice! Looks like they'll be 'standard issue' for all monsters in Sydney!

Goldfish also likes, and is close to Ungeheuer. Hey mate will they all ship to you and we can pick them up on the next ride?

I'm not fussy, silver of black, but prefer silver.
The generosity of the DMF shows no bounds! What an awesome pay it forward to your Australian brothers and sisters!

Thank you, count me in. I love Rizomas very much.  [thumbsup]
Signora Monster.  ;D

Sign me up!!! love a good dose of generousity on a friday!

Wow , count me in ! You must be one of those rare breeds i've heard about ! Need one real bad seeming i broke my right hand one yesterday. [bow_down]

Registering interest from Sydney AWwwwwstralia for free mirrors..  [beer]

It truly is the Lucky Country.

Go Craigo! [bow_down]

OP said he wanted mirrors he could see out of [laugh]

Any left ? ;D
and right for free
add me [thumbsup]

You'll be needing a pair for yer dog, too, I imagine.

By my calculations.... thats almost $9000 you've donated to your "Rizoma Mirror Bling for all Aussies" offer Povidius and we're no where near the 100 mark yet.....   [thumbsup]

I've just checked and I'll be able to adapt a pair onto my wife's Vespa GT200 as well.

These ones will need to be silver - can't put black on a retro scoot  ;)

I'm sure our mate Dockstrada - also a neighbour of ungeheuer  -  will also be into it for his three ducs. I'll send him a PM for him to register his interest as well...


Mate, don't forget the volume discount he'll be able to attract, and probably shipped direct from Italy as well...
If you need details of a local freight forwarder, Dock can help you out as well  [thumbsup]

Here's to looking behind you  ;D  [thumbsup]

g'day from Perth Australia!  :)

thanks Povidius :)

It's a good day to be an Australian.  Greetings from sunny Brisbane   [beer]

This sounds excellent. Yes pls - thanks.

This sounds too damn good to be true........but what the heck.......on my knees begging now   !
Sydney Australia here too

Registering my interest for a pair, sydney australia!!

Love the mirrors, i hope i'm not to late?

Sydney Australia

 [laugh]

Umm... Any vendors out there? I need a group buy, please!  :-[

   gday povidius,pigmy from sydney,am i too late?

Count me in!
Thanks! Rod
Drummoyne, Sydney, Australia

I'd have to say yes to a pair as well !!  [thumbsup]

Am I reply number 99?  Please don't say I'm reply number 101!  Free mirrors? Sounds awesome.

 ;D

Dang, free bling. Count me in!

Thanks Povidius!
Sydney, Aus here as well.

I'd like to say yes as well.( that's if I'm still in the 100)
Does Adelaide count?

CRG Blindsight, is about 2 inches in diameter and mounts to barends :)

Yes please
Povidius :)

so yeah... I've added this to my to do list.  I'll get to it asap.  ;)

Done. private email sent.

I've ridden with Ugenheuer and can't wait to piss him off with the mirrors!

cheers  [thumbsup]

I'd love a pair if we're still under the hundred. And I'm in Ungeland [thumbsup]

 [popcorn]

I'm a poor college student with one mirror because I broke the other  :'(

Can I have mirrors also?  :-\

(located in United Down Under States)

Plus I'm talking to ungeheuer so much I feel like I live with him.  ;D

I will have mine to fit my new 848 that should be comin early next year !!

Awesome!  Thanks so much.  The new mirrors just arrived, and they look fantastic.  Can't wait to get them on the bike.

Nice try Gringo  [roll] [laugh]

That's it ungeheuer we're not living together anymore. I'm looking for a new roommate.  ;D

Look mate, I can understand you wanting to claim Australian-ness for the sheer inherent cool of simply being a Down Under Dude. 

No doubt about it, we do rock  8) .

But to feign your Aussie credentials just to prey on the generosity of Povidius is a little.... um..... disingenuous  ;).

Wannabees..... tsk...  [roll]

HEY! I watched that movie Australia and it was pretty sweet. I felt like I was actually there. I even planned a vacation there but decided Italy was more appropriate being Italian with thick sideburns and riding a Ducati.

This is me in Australia being jacked looking at ungeheuer who is wishing he was me.

... is it just me or is this gettin' just a little creepy now  :-\ ??

You know what, I think we (I) crossed that line into creepy territory. haha. I need to go ride, I start to lose my mind when I go too long without riding. It's almost been 5 hours!

creepy?

I got 9 PM's asking me if this offer is legit.   [laugh]

Awesome!  I'm glad you were willing to pay me the $495.99 shipping and handling fee.  I hope the others on the list don't mind either.   [thumbsup]

Only 9?  I was hoping for hundreds.

So Povidius, how 'bout them mirrors.

It truly is a sad reflection on society when 9 individuals have become so jaded and cynical that they feel the need to question the validity of your generosity in such an untrusting manner  [roll]. It suggests that they... doubt your integrity  :o.  Cross em off the list I say!!

I know, right!   Its like, come on!  It takes time to craft these mirrors by hand.  Don't doubt; be patient...

They will ship when available so everyone just remain calm.   ;D

I gotta say, the generosity of people on this forum is amazing.  Povidus, you're a top guy.  Any time you're down under, you've gotta come riding with us so you can see all the mirrors you've bought.  I'm sure you won't be short of beer either.

Hi, i am in Sydney, Australia. Your generosity is amazing. Thank You!

I would love a set if they are still available.

Thanks again.

I bet the OP is pleased with how this thread turned out, eh  [laugh]

 :'(
