Buell Mirrors

[rtmarsh]

Fellow Buellers,
I really like the idea of having LED turn signals in my mirrors, and as you know, the 1125r has this nice feature. I was wondering if the stock 1125r mirrors will fit on my 2004 Firebolt XB12R. I have called the local Harley dealerships to see if I can take a peek at an 1125r, but all I get is "aw man, you just missed it, one just sold 5 min ago. Let me get your name and number and I will call you when one gets in." Can anyone help me, or offer any info?

We have both of the bikes here. I just walked over and looked at them both, and it looks like they should just bolt right on, plus running the wires. I dont want to disassemble the floor models to see if it works...lol, but it looks like it will work. Same studs and spacing on the mirrors.

If I replace my 07 xb9r turn signals with the 1125r LED turn signals in the back and the 1125 mirrors in the front will I need a load equalizer? If I do can I just order one form Harley along with the mirrors and signals?

 

[BuellPartsGuy]

Yes you will need a load equalizer to run that set up.

At americansportbike.com they have a LED turn signal flasher made for LEDs will this work as opposed to the load equalizer?

 

[BuellPartsGuy]

Yes

 

[rtmarsh]

Thank you Buell parts guy for the info.

 

[BuellPartsGuy]

No problem

 

[BenJamin444]

Yes thank you all the parts are ordered and on their way! Ill post pics next week.

 

[BuellPartsGuy]

Yeah, let us know how the install goes.

Where is the Flasher located I have the rear arrow turn signals on and the 1125r mirrors should be here soon. but I have looked in the owners manual and searched online and can not find the location of the Flasher to replace it with the new LED flasher. any help?

 

[BuellPartsGuy]

In one of the electrical boxes on the fairing, left side I believe.

the flasher is mounted under the fairing zip-tied/bolted to the fairing bracing backet behind the headlight on the right side of the bike

 

[BenJamin444]

Thanks

I looked at putting those on mine, when I heard the 80 a piece I looked at other alternatives. Luckily for me I was able to find some aftermarket ones at a local yamaha dealer, but the mirrors themselves are from drag specialties. As far as looks go, I went into the local HD/Buell dealership to show a saleman buddy of mine and we compared them to the 1125R's mirrors. Other than them being a little smaller they are pretty damn close to the 1125's stockers. When I get them on Ill post some pics up.

I ordered them last Monday for less than $65 a piece. the rear led blinkers for the 1125r are around $50 a piece. The Mirrors should be here soon. I will post pics.

 

[BenJamin444]

So i just finished putting on the 1125r mirrors on my 07 9r.
the now mirrors come with 1 male and 1 female connector so replaced the female with a male. and I had to drill a hole to run the wires everything fits great and works fine.... I also replaced the flasher instead of a load equalizer.

here is where the flasher is located.

 

[BenJamin444]

oh here is the hole where i ran the wire.

 

[BuellPartsGuy]

Kick ass! They look good. I thought they would fit...

I'm going to Toledo HD and ordering mine tomorrow thats fricken wicked. I have LED signals on the front but a stiff breeze pulls the rubber off the mounting stud and I have a hanging signal lol now to figure out a way to hide where the stick signals mount how did you take care of that
