Spider,

You are at a similar place to me I was also looking at both of those. The Limit is deeper in cross-section (from front to back) than the Radial - which would mean the Radial for me.

I have been toying with this one for probably a year and can't bring myself to spend that sort of money on mirrors. I find the stock mirrors pretty good for vision and didn't want to spend a small fortune without knowing whether I was going to make the vision worse. I haven't seen anything else that I like the look of (if aesthetics didn't come into it I would keep the stock mirrors) and for some reason bar ends just don't do it for me.

Found a guy in the States who has the Radials (from the Bikes of the DMF thread), could very well be the bike on PJs website. He says they are a quality product but vision is limited by your body shape - I probably wouldn't have the same issues as him but it hasn't convinced me to shell out the bucks yet.

agreed, I like the new version of stock - doesn't mean you're singing that stupid "M.I.C, K.E.Y mouse" song.

and bar ends don't do it for me, to each there own!

Thanks Betty.

Anything is better than the OEM mirrors, if you like those Rizoma's just buy 'em.

Now I know what my interest payments are funding. Angry

They were my first set of mirrors.
Couldn't use them because the bike couldn't get down the narrow passage with them on.
Vision from them is great.
Have you seen the oberon bar end ones, Tricolore has them I think.
Very neat This type

Thanks Matty certainly more affordable than the Rizoma mirrors. S'pose it is a matter of the value of the convex glass.

to tell you the truth, if I was buying again I'd get the items from Au Street Fighter.
Good value and surely the best vision rearward.
