Default Mirror Replacement

Anyone know if either of these will be a direct bolt on replacement for a '91 ?

Item1 - No.............. how do you get to the bolts to secure the mirror ? Bots on CBR mirrors are fitted from the outside.(?) At least mine are........
Item2 - You want to fit those crappy Kwackers mirrors on a CBR ?(shudders)
As I recall from my Kwacker, the bolt holes aren't the same.
Why not just get replacement mirrors from www.Wemoto.co.uk

Kwacker mirrors on a Hurricane.......(shakes head, wanders off muttering rude words)

Don't know about 91's, but the first mirror looks like it might work on the 93 and later bikes. It has a similar mounting bracket. You get to the bolts by pulling back the rubber covers. Nevertheless, why chance it. There should be enough aftermarket mirrors out there to fit the 91. I know they're not hard to find for my 95.

At least if you buy mirrors which are quoted by the supplier as being for the 91, and they don't fit, you can send them back. A bit pricey from Wemoto, but..............
I think they changed the fittings from 93 on for the mirrors.Also, IMO the originals are a stupid design on the 89-92's, with the plastic cover (that's always full of insects and crap)[X(]
