KTM's? They look like the SuperDuke mirrors. I was looking into those prior to getting the Tuono mirrors. They look great regardless! |

Is that the same pair? |

They are '07 KTM 690 SuperMoto mirrors. These are more angular than the one's in the photo above. Less than $25 a piece. I figured to get a pair of 8mm to 10mm adapters from Dennis Kirk for $11 and be done. But NO, the bastages at KTM spec'd a left hand thread on the shafts and KTM adapters are $30 for the pair! At that point the Touno mirros are looking better. But. Not to be denied, I got my cousin to spin a couple of collars to fit over the shafts, to "shim" them to .475". That allowed me to use the Buell mirror collet mounts. |

Looks good, Teeps. Looks like you got your dual-scoops on too. Not to hijack your mirror thread but how do the scoops work? |

Snowscum, That thing right behind the front wheel on the KTM is a roadkill fillet and cookem processor. Anytime you hit a coon, rabbit, possum or other critter, you just ride another 1/2 hr while the front headers take care of business and the meat will just fall right off the bone. Delicious! |
