Default Side mirror upgrade?

Hi there!
Is there a aftermarket upgrade for the side mirrors? Something a little sleeker?

Grateful for any advice,

Dennis

I tried Ebay and only found OEM. I was looking to replace existing side mirrors with something sleeker.

Thanks for the reply.

Basically anything is possible. It just depends on how much work you want to put into fabricating something to fit.
I would suggest looking on some of thr fighter build threads on here. That will give you some ideas of what you might like.

little late reply, but I bought VFR800 mirrors from the 00-01 model since they are practically bolt-on (same holes). They are pretty expensive though, but I thought that original mirrors would be more stable.

Of course, they aren't much sleeker in general, but at least you get rid of that horrendous rubber.

a (bad) picture of them fitted: https://scontent-arn2-1.cdninstagram...89720836_n.jpg

Original part number is 88110-MBG-D01 and 88120-MBG-D01 (right and left side)

Original is around $70 each, so $140 for the pair. I have however seen aftermarket copies for half the price. Not sure about the quality though.

If you search for those article numbers on ebay, you get plenty of options.

My main concern was vibrations during riding (rendering the mirrors useless) so I went for original.

Found another picture which has a better angle with these mirrors on: https://scontent-arn2-1.cdninstagram...79798130_n.jpg
