Mirrors

Where is a good place to find replacement mirrors for my Buell XB? The stock ones suck ass!

I got CRG bar ends from Americansportbike, around $80 each with adapter. Little pricey I thought but worth it. You can see loads better and they look awesome.

Thanks LeFox!
The rizoma stuff seems to be more up my alley...anybody know any other companies that has stuff along the same lines?

 

[LeFox]

Forget those over priced bar end mirrors. I got bicycle mirrors for my bike. They're called Third Eye bar end mirrors. I had to modify them slightly because I have after market bars on my bike and the id is a little smaller, but if you have stock bars they are a 5 min install. They are made from heavy duty plastic and are rock friggin steady. They look great and the best part is, they cost me $19.95 plus $5 shipping from Amazon.

who sells rizoma?

Well I think as far as Calgary Alberta Canada goes, Blackfoot motor sports.

mrdozer2you : how much better do you see with your new bar ends ? does it resolve the vibration issue around 3000 RPM, which gives you super blurry stock mirrors ?

Even cheap bar end mirrors give a vibration-free image. I got mine off of ebay for $35 shipped and they work great[up].

Anyone use bar end mirrors on an R?

got several buddies who do...

LeFox,

Do you have any pics? I am curious to see how they look. I will be getting a 2007 XB9R soon and wanted something different than those big plastic stock things.

[LeFox]

don't have pics of them...

and to be honest, i think you have better & nicer looking options in mirrors for the 'r' mounted on the fairing (orig. spot).

the ones with the integrated flashlights are pretty nice too.

 

[Thulsadoom]

LeFox,

You are right, the mirrors are not as bad as those on the Lightning, however, I would like something a little more unique.

[LeFox]

well, since i don't have any pictures...you're still unique
