I'm trying desperatly to get a pair of mirrors for my bike, and the only place I can find them is at DAFY-MOTO, a chain motorcycle store located throughout France.

I have sent them numerous e-mails (both in French and English) asking them if they will ship to the U.S. but haven't heard anything back.

I'm hoping someone from over there could buy the mirrors for me and ship them to me, and, of course, I would send them payment to cover all the costs.

I'm guessing these are cheap mirrors, but I can't find anything that even looks like them anywhere else in the States.

Here's the link to them (in black):

The situation is under control - it has been pointed out to me that Trojan carries these guys, and I'll be glad to give him my business.

I saw them on another members bike and loved them. The bar ends aren't doing it for me on the CR, so i needed something small and sleek to mount in the standard location and these look to fit the bill nicely.

If you can't get em with Trojan shoot me a pm, there's a Dafy in town.

JFI €20 = $26 about.

Pound is cheap so maybe cheaper with Trojan.

Thanks, grumps. Current conversion is only about a dollar less for pounds so it's not really an issue at this point.

I don't know how Trojan ship to the US but bear in mind you may have to pay, import duty & local taxes, Useless Parcel Service & Failure Express, are a royal PIA for this.
Also ask Trojan to knock off the VAT as it's export out of Eurozone.

Any probs give me a shout, pm or phone's in the BRAN. (try to remember the time difference as it really narks the wife when she's woken by friend's ringing at outlandish hours)
