First off, I'm finally an owner of a Buell Lightning XB12S!! About time!
Secondly, I've got a question or two. I just picked up an '04 from a gentleman who told me about how it had been laid down previously and I thought I knew all of the details. Long story short, I found this when I went to measure for bar end mirrors...
I'm in love with the Oberon Streetfighter mirrors, but it's looking like I'm gonna have to replace the whole handlebar so I can eventually mount a right side mirror. I measured the OD of the handlebars, but I don't think somethings adding up. These are the Renthal Streetfighter handlebars, correct? If so, the OD is 7/8" but what collet do I pick for the mirrors? I took a caliper to measure the ID, and it looked like 1/2"...
Anyone have an idea on what I should by to fit properly?
