I need to get a new set of mirrors and I can't decide whether to go with carbon fiber or chrome. Chrome could be a little outrageous, but it could also end up looking cool as hell.

So what types of mirrors do you guys have on your GS's?

davipu

stock, black and chrome,  one of each.  someday when I quit crashing  I'll get a matching set

Tyrant171

Hey, how do you think these mirrors would look/work on a GS? Would they even be long enough?[/url]

davipu

yeah they are long enough, oh wait unless you wanted to see something behind you

Tyrant171

I just can't get enough of your sarcastic wit.

Wait.....now I'm doing it, too.  :nana:

davipu

just wait till you start drinking alone....

get good quality mirrors...cheap mirrors vibrate...


I've got Napolean ones...shorter than stock...and they are awesome

I got a set of bar end replacement nepoleans if you are intrested

Tyrant171

No, but thanks anyway davipu.

These mirrors are just so sexy.....and they come in short or long stem. I'm guessing that if I were to go for those that I should get the long stem?

I was using SV650 mirrors; I think they look a lot better than stock ones, and they can be found for dirt cheap.

Unfortunately someone knocked my bike over and one of them broke.   :x    So now I'm back to stock.

Dave, bring the Napoleon's down with you to SD.  I'll probably pick them up off you, cuz I'm sick of the POS buzzmachine stock chromie's on my '00.  That, or I'll slap 'em on whatever bike comes down the pipeline next.

Do you have a full set that matches?

Maybe it's only me, but personally I kinda like the stock mirrors. Sure, they're a little cumbersome, but they fit the bike well I think.

Yeah, it's only you.  That's OK, I can sell mine to ya when I get some real ones!

Really, I don't think they are too bad, but they are awfully tall and goober-looking, IMHO.  Of course, I've only got the left on now to satiate the local cops.

my bike never had mirrors then my daddy made me buy some...there cheap and the right one vibrates and i cant see past my arms.  I never use them and just turn my head.  I just tuck an elbow in when stopping to see how close the guy behind me is. But other than that I dont use them.

i just ordered these in black.  not sure if they are going to fit though.  couldn't find any info on the size of the base.
