Cool Mirrors (need your opinion!)

Aye aye guys!

I'm calling for your help here. Desperately looking for a new set of mirrors, and I really want to get after market.

I found one set on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CBR-6...=p4506.c0.m245
Look pretty good, but the fact that they fit ALL models is a bit suspicious.

Your thoughts, opinions, suggestions... anything is welcomed!!!

The set I posted isn't my last decision. If someone knows anything else and has tested/used, let me know too.

Hey yog! Are yours stock?

stock or block off plates are the way to go.
sorry but those are ugly and way over priced.
if you just want aftermarket get some pig spotters.

-1 on the pig spotters.. They are over priced for what they are too.. You mine as well run no mirrors then get them.

I think they're pretty sleek. Hard to say what they would look like on the bike though. They appear as if they would mount up pretty easily, but who knows. I personally bought my bike with just a handlebar blind spot mirror and hated it, now I have 2 bigass stock bunny ear mirrors and I love it. I drive a street bike, not a race bike.

I'll race ya!! HAHA...

The mirror on the handle bar actually are easier to use.. You dont have to move your shoulder out of the way and its just a quick glance down.. Course I don't find myself using any mirror where iver its located too often..
