Racetech or CBR mirrors

I need a new set of mirrors which I can mount further down on my scuttle so I can fit my aero screen.

I know racetech ones would do the job, but any which fit on the sides of the scuttle would be good. (I think CBR ones will?)

If anyone has done a swap after SVA and has a spare pair of mirrors then let me know.

Cheers,
David

Depends if you like chrome!!
They're Louis motorbike ones.
They're about 20 quid each if you buy them in the UK or if you buy them in Germany they're about that for two including postage!!! I only found that out after shelling out for UK ones though

My Mirrors are not as good as I would like them to be. Have already managed to crack the plastic on the drivers one, and have managed to repair it. (it was like a limp dick) So dont get them if they are like mine. I'm not impressed with the quality for the money.

I fixed them with JB Weld (resin glue) and they are holding up OK.
The Half - Fords replacement plastic mirror / glass is OK as long as you have a dead flat surface. Mine is slightly convex, and it screws the optics up completely. So have cut another (was enough for 2 mirrors for £10). and glued it to a flat plate then hot melt glued the plate to the mirror body. Not as good as the original glass, but does work well enough to drive with.

Anyone know where I can get a glass from, or what my mirrors came off (Bike) I would be grateful for the info.
