Mirrors thread

[bobbfrommn]

I was thinking about a new set of mirrors, something a little more streamline, maybe a teardrop shape. two questions:
Anyone have a recommendation?
Anyone know what the thread pattern is? (10mm?)

I'm looking for something like these but with out the blocky stems. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Yama...56757QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW#ebayphotohosting

Bob,
Have you checked out www.exactrep.com
they have some sleek looking mirrors if you don't want bar end mirrors.

I was tired of not being able to see anything but my shoulders.

Re: Mirrors & thread

I'm sure everyone knows this but be sure the mirrors say they will fit Yamahas because of the reverse thread on one side.

What would be Mario's website? I'm tired of not having mirrors on my bike since I pulled the ones off the reseviors.

Mirror mirror on the Vmax, show me the pricey mirrors so I can relax::hmmm:

Vmax has 10 mm bolt size* for mirrors. One is LH thread and the other is RH thread.

*dkw0417 is correct for the sizing of the mirror mounts.

Re: Mirrors & thread

it has to be a 10mm stem(bolt size) with a 1.25 thread pitch. The right hand mirror is also revearse threaded making it more fun. I just put bar end mirrors on and put bolts in the old holes so that the threads wouldn't rust. That exact size bolt needed. By the way I found the revearse threaded one by luck, it is common in weed eater heads, I had it from an aftermarket kit.

Re: Mirrors & thread

Thanks for all the responses there are some cool mirrors here. Much more interesting than the ones I've been seeing on ebay.

Re: Mirrors & thread

I looked a long time before I got mine. Personaly I prefer bar-ends. If you decide to go that route then it's Mario for sure. Nothing else even begins to come close........

Re: Mirrors & thread

just bought a set of mirrors from mario. they are an older discontinued style which he has sent out for chroming. i'm glad he found these as there wont be many around like them! some time here in the next 2 weeks the new r1 front end, isr masters, shift lite, rear caliper, and rotor will be installed as well as the mirrors. i'll post the pics when i'm done.

Mirror opinions

I am having a hard time deciding which direction I want to go for my new mirrors and am looking for opinions. I am thinking about going with bar ends, but have never had them. Could you guys give me your experiences with bar ends compared with traditionals?

This post can be deleted. I managed to find the information I needed. I just hadn't looked hard enough.

Re: Mirrors & thread

There are plastic plugs available that fit into those holes as well. My FJR masters came with them.

I dont' see any ordering info on Mario's website. Is there prices/styles available for bar-ends?
