they look similar to the Aprilia Tuono mirrors that many Buellers have, but these have integrated turn signals. Are these aftermarket or an OEM part?

Looks like a set of the aftermarket ones that D2 Moto has listed. |

They are aftermarket which can be found here: http://www.flyncycle.com/Universal_Motorcycle_Mirr or_p/mru-015.htm I have a pair and LOVE them!

Hey Piotr12 - do they screw directly into the stock mounts? If not how difficult are they to install including hooking up the turn signals? Do you have any pictures of them installed? |

The mirrors have 10mm stems which attach to the factory mounts. All I did was removed the stock mirrors and screwed the new ones in. Connecting the electrics is very simple. Just splice into the factory turn signal wires. It took me 15 minutes (if that) to install and make the electrical connections. No special relays are needed if you are keeping the stock turn signals.

Are the pictures not showing up above? |

Are they better than the stock mirrors for clarity? Can't tell what's behind me on the freeway, stock mirrors are so dang buzzy. |

A LOT better. Plus the mirrors are convex so you get a much bigger field of view. |

Captcaz turned me on to these mirrors originally. However, I'm currently selling my Buell and I have a pair of these that I bought and never used. In the end, I also liked the look of the round bar-end mirrors I already had. Let me know if you're interested. I'm selling them for $75.

Indybuell, I got your PM and Grianp currently has dibs on 'em and has already sent me an email/PM. If he doesn't want them I'll let you know. Also, forward me the link where they are $50. If you can find them at that price definitely buy them. These are black BikeMaster LED mirrors P/N 60-0299. The cheapest I've found them is about $85 without shipping. |

Those appear to be similar mirrors, but with reflectors vice turn signals. The BikeMaster mirrors have LED turn signals built in. If you don't care for the turn signals, those are a cheaper alternative. Nice find. |

LOL, seriously? Sounds like someone has not taken the time to read this thread. The mirrors DO have LED turn signals built in. $57 dollars delivered to my door. |

Sorry, didn't realize that was linked from your post. Our mirrors have clear LEDs, the picture depicts amber and no wires...so I assumed just reflectors. Buy from them, I'll continue to sell mine on Craigslist. That is a good deal as I paid about $100 with delivery. |
