I was planning to order a set of these:

http://www.rideitmoto.com/products.php?id=176

They're pretty common on eBay and are a knockoff of the Rizoma "Reverse Retro" model (bottom of page):

Does anyone have these? If so, are they good? Are they anodized or powdercoated, and is the finish high-quality and durable? Any pics of them installed?

I'm also wondering if I'll have any trouble using the supplied universal bar end adapter. I have the high bar installed (not the clubman bar) if that matters. From reading around, I got a sense that the 1125CR bars might be tapered inside, and I'm not sure if that will cause any clearance issues.

Thanks!
 
I Would say go for it everyone who has ordered from rideitmoto has been happy thus far so I would say it to be a safe bet ordering from them. [up]
 
i ordered a set and received thema while back. they do look good and of resonable quality. just trying to figure out the best bar end option to fit them with now. they are more heavy than i was thinking they would be and some of hte cheaper bar ends dont hold weight well.
 
Bought there turn signals and there products are very well made and do not look cheap @ all!Would be a great buy!
 
Awesome - thanks for the feedback, everyone!

I'm going to go ahead and order a set. I'll try to post back when I install them to show everyone how they work out.

@twoguns: Did yours come with the universal bar mounts? It looks like these do, and they worked well enough on a set of the Motrax convex round bar-end mirrors that I mounted on my old SV650. Those were probably a lot lighter, though, so maybe those don't stay in place as well with the universal bar mounts?

@n0ctrnlr3d: Looks like you have the actual Rizoma ones? Do those have blue-tinted glass like the RideItMoto ones do? And are they anodized or powder-coated? Just curious.
 
I got a set for my girlfriends blast. They came with universal bar ends and everything went on good with some minor triming to a plastic spacer supplied. They look good and she is very happy with them. Good size and the blue tint helped with glare.
 
@Bungle
- Rizoma for sure. Handling the mirror shows great quality. The metal seems really dense and powder coated for sure.

Mirror is blue.
 
Thanks, guys - I just got my set (the RideItMoto ones) and they look great! Very good quality, CNC-machined billet and black anodized. I prefer anodized to powdercoated since I think it looks nicer and holds up better.

I need a couple more parts before I mess with the stock mirrors/turn signals, but I'll try to get them on the bike in a week or two and post some pictures. Unless they don't fit or tighten well, though, I'm very happy with the purchase!
