We don't know what you consider good quality. Any of the cheap ones on ebay will work. Mine has been working fine. | ||

For the price you can't beat them. They are readily available too. | ||

if you are looking for some inexpensive bar end mirrors, thrid eye gets my vote. cheaper than the e-bay aluminum ones, with pretty much the same vision quality/vibration issues. they are plastic, like the cateye, but they take the 60+ mph wind better, and are easily adjustable on the fly | ||

Get cheap ones from a bicycle store, as they are the first thing to break in a tip over. | ||

froggy is a crash specialist. What credentials do you have than can verify that cheap barend mirrors will help in a tipover. | ||

I checked in a bike store, found they were more expensive than buying on ebay. I know its sorry but true. | ||

A cheap bar end will shatter, and you will be out a few bucks. An expensive bar end will shatter, and you will be out $50. From what I have seen, a more expensive bar end will take a hit better, but you are still likely to cause damage to it. Personally I use the stockers, they came with the bike and work fantastic. | ||

I had these on my last bike and they worked out great. I mounted so that they hung low instead of high. Is this for a CR. If so, I think they would look sweet! No bad for $25 w/shipping. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Bar-End-Mirrors-Kaw asaki-Vulcan-Star-Buell-Boulevard_W0QQcmdZViewItem QQhashZitem33595c0555QQitemZ220542534997QQptZMotor cyclesQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories#ht_2336wt_882 | ||

Going with Rhino ends and a CRG mirror. I plan on mounting black Rizoma Zero signals on top of a GSD block off that Pete from GSD was super awesome enough to sell me for the destruction process. If it all looks clean I plan on going with black GSD covers for the final build. This way I can have minimal mirrors and still have a signal for NJMVC inspection. I like to think cagers are looking for my blinker but they are probably texting anyways.  (Message edited by kc10_fe on February 17, 2010) | ||

Let's see a pic mounted. How well do the bicycle mirrors stay put at 70+mph? the ebay ones will stay put at speeds well over 70mph. | ||

Hey CMS1172, where are your front turn signals? It's kind of hard to tell from that pic. I was thinking of doing the same to my CR, but I can't decide on a place to put the front turn signals. | ||
| Cms1172 |
The signals are still on order. I bought a set that would perfectly cover the slots left open on the side of the fly screen after putting the high bar kit on. Not to mention, with the stock mirrors, all I could see was my elbows. With these, I have a full view, just like we are supposed to. (Message edited by cms1172 on February 18, 2010) |
