Monstrack Mirrors

[WestonWith2]

So I've finally decided on some mirrors to replace the stocks... I really like the look of the Monstrack mirrors- http://www.monsterparts.com/pc/MIR02/Bars-Mirrors/MIR02.html

I just don't know whether I should get the short or long. I don't want the mirrors to be so short that they are not usable, but at the same time I don't want them sticking out way past the bar ends either.

Anyone have a pair of these or know how long these are?

thanks
Weston

I'm curious about this as well. I just put my stock mirrors back on after riding around with Rizoma Class mirrors for a while. The Rizoma's certainly looked cool but I couldn't see anything directly behind me. The Monstrack's look like they may do the trick but I can't find any information on their length.

I had the x-long version on. They are exactly the same width as stock mirrors on S*R bikes. The two shorter versions will be..... yes, shorter/more narrow. They look super-cool and are very well built. My decision to sell them off was based on my need for convex glass.

As with any mirrors - you will always have to choose between seeing straight backwards OR to the side. You can't have it both ways. I like to see what's behind me, others prefer the side view.

My solution was this http://ducatimonsterforum.org/index.php?topic=7427.0
Don't look very cool, but they are highly functional.

You guys are in luck, just got mine in the mail today, Ill put them on  and take pics. .BRB

Like a said, i just put them on like a few min, ago. they went on easy and look a hell of a lot better than the stockers. They seem to be big enough to be functional.

These are the long ones.


ok here they are

Great timing Ravn! Those look pretty good too and I think I'm going with the long as well  . StopinTime - thanks for the input. I'll keep your solution in mind if these mirrors don't work out.

Cheers fellas

I have the short Monstrack mirrors, I reviewed them here.

They work well for me, but I am narrow, and wouldn't expect them to work for most people.

Kevin at Monstrack is super nice and will let you try out different sizes if you like.

Oops... I guess I should have done a search. Nice review Ms. Now I am torn. Looks like the short mirrors are just about an inch shy of reaching the bar ends, and the long ones just go past it. You have the same bike I do Ms. and those mirrors look pretty sweet.

Now I may go with the short

If anyone has pictures of the short version and an opinion (like can you see anything?) please post!

Yes, thanks for the info guys. The pics are a great help, Ravn. I may have to go with the X-long ones since I'm not as "narrow" as I'd like to be.

I have an extra set of mirrors that came with my bike, the previous owner said he tried them and did not care for them. I am 99.99% sure that they are the black Monstrack mirrors. If anyone is interested, make me an offer 

[WestonWith2]

Sure! Post a pic if you don't mind
