I layed down my 500F a few weeks ago. I need help with a couple parts. I saw that 2003 GSXR mirrors will fit. I also wondered what bar end would fit. Can I get GSXR handlebar ends that will fit. (I broke mine.) The last thing is what brake and clutch levers will fit. Can I get GSXR levers. I wanted to get all of them with the carbon fiber look to match, and it is cheaper than buying OEM parts. Thanks for any information.
I beleive you can get universal levers for cheep from your local bike shop I know the ones around my city sell them that will fit the gs500, also most bar ends are universal and if they dont fit then you can make them fit easy. I dont know if the new gs500's have the screw type ends? if they do then you just have to cut the lip on the bar ends if you go with napoleans that is and then get a longer hex bolt then slap them on and your done. here is a pic (http://home.comcast.net/~jjvphotography/napolean6.jpg) most universal parts will fit. and most bike parts you can make fit. aslong as you have the right tools and idea your good to go :)
the stock bar end weights are much heavier than the aftermarket ones...i got some aftermarket ones but never used em....stock ones were at least twice as heavy...so all i used was the rubber bushings from the aftermarket ones to put my stock ones into different bars.
Looking at the new GSXR600 mirrors I don't think they'll work... The angle of the mount looks a little different... Check out the new SV650S they look very close.. I guess part numbers or a call to the dealer would answer that question...
The 05 GSXR mirrors will fit, direct bolt on and can be adjusted to the new angle.
