Anyone ever used them?

And are my mirrors 8mm or 10mm?

should be 10mm, and the right side is right-hand thread. (backwards... ask me how i know)

you really need mirrors? just seems like something that... no offense... you will break.  Grin

the second set isn't so bad. I've seen a few sets like the first, too HD for me. IMO they kind of look cheap though.

yeah the bar end ones to me make your bars seem a mile long. I may go for the rizoma reverse retro knock offs, or if i win the lotto, some limited nakeds would be amazing

These do look pretty good.  But I think the mirror part is a little too tall.  Do you have anything slimmer, similar to the Rizoma Circuit 743.  I like the look A LOT.

Why don`t you want bar ends? For $60 you can get two pairs of the ebay fake crg`s. I have them ( only one left now and they work great.) You`ll have two spares for when your bike gets nocked over and it brakes. You can keep an extra in your pack and you`ll still save $90 over the ones your looking at.

You have to take your eyes off the road to use them....
2.5-3 inc CRG type bar ends make you street legal, but they don't work very well
if rear view functionality and visual ergonomics are important.

The  Classic Ducati bar ends work because the put the mirror forward of the bars.

60 buck for CRG knock offs? where do u buy yours mookie? They are only $15 from the ebay guy i get it from and ive been through 4 of them already (2 pairs that is) i dont like them because they make lane changing a pregnant dog. the napelon bar ends are by far the best in terms of visability, but they are HUGE.


got any more pics of the teardrop shapped ones? Im liking those cause they dont seem to be to big for lane splitting.
