Anyone have these mirrors?

[Macbuell]

I just picked a pair of these up on ebay for about $30 I think. I like the look, anyone have them on the bike?

Koso Mirrors

 

[FIDOSOL]

never seen them before I got these ones off ebay.

Let us know how those work out for you.

 

[Macbuell]

Better pictures if you search ebay for koso mirrors. Below is a link if it works. I will write my review when I get them...from hong kong in 2 weeks

Hey when you are trying to post a link or add pics and aren't sure if it will work, just check the preview post box at the bottom because then you can change it over and over until you get it right, then post it up for everyone to see.

I just ordered both sets.

The first pic and the bar ends. The regular mounts will be for my girlfriend since she hates the stockers on her lightning and once she gets a bit better at riding and doesnt need to worry about tipping over she is converting to the bar ends.

I got a set of bar ends for road trips but otherwise I go mirrorless.

 

[xtremelow]

Oh forgot how do you like the mirror, quality, fit, overall look, etc....?

 

[FIDOSOL]

The fit is nice, doesn't get it the way at all, no vibration, I just check them every now and then to see if they need to be retightened or not, so far they haven't. The key is to adjust them so that when you look down your arm isn't in the way. To be honest I don't use them nearly as often as I should. I almost always check over my shoulder.

 

[xtremelow]

Yeah, Michigan requires one mirror by law that us why I want to get them even though I just look over my shoulder anyway.

Plus they will help me keep an eye on my GF since she is just learning to ride.

 

[xtremelow]

Macbuell do you have those Morris yet or are they in the mail?

Just wondered if you had any pics on the bike.

 

[Macbuell]

They are in the mail, I will be back in here with some pics once I get them on the bike

 

[Macbuell]

Alright, Finally was able to take some pictures. Mirrors are not the best quality, but hey I paid $30 for the pair so I am happy. I like them better than stock. Decent visability, actually vibrate less than stock too.

Got my GF's put on after I got my money back


since one mirror was broke both were scratched and there was an obvious difference in color of tint between the two mirrors. Also one mirror is loose on the mount and a couple adaptors were missing luckly not the two I needed.

I guess you get what you pay for, oh and the box looked like it was a double from the first Ace Ventura movie.

Not bad for free I guess.

How hot does your flyscreen get with it pulled down like it is. Looks good.

I just ordered A set of these, what are they like. Cant get bar ends because it makes my bike to wide to fit threw my gate.

 

[chase12s]

FIDOSOL- how are your ebay mirrors holding up? I'm thinking about getting a set.

 

[BlackandChrome]

I've been through 3 sets of ebay bar end mirrors. The motodeluxe are the only ones I'd buy again or recommend. They're in the $50 range - don't bother with the $30 or $40 ones. They will just fall apart in a month.


I used the bar end mirrors on my X1 and loved them. I've only taken a few rides on my new (to me) Firebolt with stock mirrors and can't stand them. I got a set of the motodeluxes for xmas. I haven't installed them yet but can't wait to. I'm still working on what I'm going to do with the stock mirror holes. I don't like the block-off plates available. I'm going to try and find a flush mount turn signal or fit the holes with spikes.
