I some how broke the nut that tightens the mirror on my bike. Can understand what happened as I haven't been out on it in over a month. Just noticed it when I was out looking at mounting a tank bag and the mirror just spins round and round without it.

Anyway this is the acorn nut that goes over the shaft that the mirror mounts to...anyone know if I can buy it or will I have to belly up for a whole mirror set-up?

It's for an Stt

Throw away the Mickey Mouse mirrors and get some that look better.

Or

You could ask, and I am sure there are hundreds of set of these mirrors sitting on garage floors and shelves all over the world. I bet you could get a set for a little over the cost of shipping.

same thing happened to my friend's 07
toss 'em and get some CATEYE racing bicycle mirrors. yes, bicycle. 9.99 each, and they work great, even at 130 mph.....or so i've heard.
i think the look just as good as the crg's and it won't cost ya no 80 bones if you drop yer bike (knock on wood) to replace them
i picked mine up from my local bicycle shop. they don't seem to have them online, though

Take your mirror off and head over to an Ace Hardware.
You can get d@mn near any nut you need there.
