I am trying to find a mount for my radar detector to fit in the threaded hole where my mirror used to be. I found one at this size:

10 mm x 1.25

Will it fit?

I also tried googling badweb and I could not find an answer.

Thanks,
Rob

This here is a bar mount. I know it's not what you looking for but it may help.

I want to go with techmounts so I can use the threaded hole that my mirrors were in. I have bar ends now. It seems like it would work nicely I just want to make sure the size is right.

Your link has more options. But it claims there are not results for your bike...

I know. Either there database is screwed or they have not updated it yet. I am assuming that by Standard "10 mm x 1.25" They mean that most bikes use that size, hopefully including Buell.

When I turned down and threaded the posts from my bar-end mirrors to fit the stock location, I know it was 10mm and I believe the pitch of 1.25 is correct.

You can buy a single bolt with that configuration and check, or take a mirror into your local hardware store and check.

Also I believe the size/pitch is standard, because some Buell owner's have replaced their mirrors with ones off of an Aprilia with no modifications necessary.

What Aprilia mirrors fit Buell Rs -- I have been trying to figure this out for a while!

Tuono, I saw these on a Uly.

The first post mentioned 10mm by 1.25 threads, I had the understanding that it was for a posted mirror. Like the ones used on Lighting's, if I created any confusion, sorry.

Thanks Point_doc. I will go to the hardware store and check it to be sure.
