Default don't buy these mirrors

Found 'em on eBay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Honda...spagenameZWDVW

I bought these mirrors after someone backed into my bike while I was at work (I live in an apartment). They're a little smaller than the stock pieces but I thought they would work just fine......wrong. I removed them after only ten minutes of riding because they absolutely SUCK! Too small, too much vibration, hard to adjust. Anyway, just thought I'd give you guys a heads up in case you were shopping too.

I was thinking about those too. Went with something different that's not so great either. Inferior quality.

Yeah i bought from those people too. Seems like all their mirrors are tiny and useless. Don't buy the "Racing mirrors" that are rectangular. They're like 1 1/2" by 5" and help none

you get what you pay for.. .

there is a reason why OEM mirrors are like 70$ a peice... because they work...

i bought EMGO mirrors ... 30$ a peice... and the hinge is too loose.... never liked it...

luckily i found a steal.... a pair of OEM mirrors mint... 30$ shipped..... i jumped on it... couldnt be happier.

i bought a set of their jag mirrors from same company for my f4i. they were horrible. they were just cheaply made, i mean i paid like 25 bucks i dint expect anything great but they were pretty bad.

to install the ones i had there were slits in the base of the mirror and a bolt went through and in to the fairing on bike. well the top of the bolts they send dont fit in to the divit before for the slit. its hard to explain but it just dint work. i had to go buy bolts for it to work. then if you hit 60 the wind would fold them in. 3 times they vibrated to the point they were held on by almost nothing.

dont buy mirrors from them
