New mirrors for my XB.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I think these will go well with the Buell being that bit unusual.
What do you think?

Don't know if they'll be any good though.

Looks like the head of a golf club, maybe a 3 or a 4 iron.

Nyuk, nyuk. Mirrors by Spalding. I don't know about a Buell, but they would look at home on a West Coast Choppers creation.

Are those the rectangular blindspot mirrors from auto parts stores? Lol thats awesome, short and stubby. Not my thing, but hey, if it works... do it.

Yes Ryan they are blindspot mirrors ,this is the third try on the mirrors, the last set would often fly off at about 120 and the parts cost me $8 each time so I,m hope this works.
