So I finally got around to updating my bike web page. I've added a bunch of pictures of what it looks like now, and a list of all the things I replaced.

Check it out!

Looks good! I like it just the way it is.

My pleasure to help.  :)         ............just don't crash again!

I never noticed that the logo was already missing from the left case cover. No problem. That will be fixed when you get the cover I put in the mail today.  :thumb:

Changed the pics?? I didn't change the pics....

The mirrors I had before I crashed were just the stock ones, the new ones are these Bikemaster Supersport Mirrors from Chaparral Racing. They are okay.. I like the stock ones better because they are chrome and I think they look better, these new ones are black plastic and they just don't look as nice to my eyes. They were $10, I guess I got what I paid for!

:dunno:

That's funny, i have the exact same mirrors (they were on the bike when purchased) and the receipt for them which the owner had said Emgo  :dunno:
Sorry Scoob (shaggy voice)

They're as big as car mirrors and provide a good view of behind you. I like them alot.  I never have to turn my head.
This is not a jack.
Meighan i for got to add that you got it back together pretty damn quick too!

Well they might just be similar, or sold under a different name. But yeah, they are huge and provide a sweeping view of the road behind you. I still shoulder check, but I don't feel the need to quite as much. I still don't like them as much as stock though, but that's just out of aesthetic reasons.  :mrgreen:

try Napoleon AGP AX mirrors.....they look similar.  check them on my bike but i removed them, since they don't match the fairing.  Its in the members mug area, page 5.

I recall when you first made this post adn I opened your link there was a pic of your completed bike with black mirriors and now they are gone

thats what I am looking for, mirriors that stretch out so I can actually see behind me. When I look in my mirrors now all I can see is the pads in my jacket and you know how those cages can sneek up behind you.

Anyone know what size the stock mirrors are?

I can measure when I get home if you'd like, I still have one of my old stock ones from the crash... all scraped up ;)
