Best option is e-Bay
I don't think Davidsilverspares or Wemoto would keep them, and to get from Honda will cost you your pension. If I see any I'll let you know.
What colour do you need ?
Sometimes www.e-Bay.de (Germany is an option- I have bought spares from them) Plenty of 1000F's there.

As for generics - I don't know if the later model mirrors are the same bolt distances as the Mk1 - maybe if you measure them, there may be mirrors from something else without boots and a bit longer........

Got a set of aftermarket mirrors for my '88 recently ... the one's with the built in indicators and finished in black! .... No idea on the quality yet long term, but I'll keep you posted! .... A mate of mine has had 'em on his CBR for a year or so with no problems!!! .... Here's hoping!

Regards,

shakey
