No more rabbit ears! MIRRORS MIRRORS

Got my mirrors in but here is my problem at about 80 or 85 they get really bad vibration, is there any way around that or anything i can do.

Are you sure they are bolted tight enough? Did you use a piece of rubber underneath the mount? I didn't use rubber although I will probably take them off at some point and cut some rubber for underneath them. It should help dampen the wind effects. I haven't noticed any problems with mine, but then again I don't normally ride at 85. I'm still breaking my bike in. Do you have a pic of the finished product?

Wow looks good with the blacked out screen and the zx6r mirrors. Looks more supersport. I would try a small piece of rubber the size of the base under each and make sure the bolts are good and tight. Did the mirrors move on you at 85? My one mirror had a loose screw and it moved under speed. Not the mounting base screws, the one for adjustment.

The base is nice and tight it seems to move from the uper part of the mirror the part that hold the glass in place I could be.wrong but that whole upper part seems to be what moves to me.

I need to get rid of these pig spotters. They look cool but functionality wise they are God awful. Will something like these bolt right on?

The zx-6r mirrors are bolt on if that's what you are asking.

Thanks. So the ones I linked should just bolt right into the stock ones slots?

 

[Scott_Thomas]

The ones you linked are r6 mirrors. Not sure if they're a direct fit. I used zx-6r mirrors (ninja).

Got my ZX6R mirrors on today. It's nice to see whose behind me now Easy install and fight right in the stock holes.

They look good, pig spotters look nice but aren't functional.

Finally got rid of those awful mirrors
Check these out. Let me know what you think...

These are advertised as universal. And I was very impressed with level / amount of adjustability. Love the look and very cheap. $17 and free shipping.

I did have to make one hole on each side slightly bigger.

They look like Ninja 250 mirrors. Look nice, but viewing area looks small. Do you have decent view?

They are definitely not the ninja 250 mirrors but do look similar. They are very compact thus smaller viewing area is significantly smaller. Its location is still where I can see behind me although my hands / arms are significantly in the way. I'll write a review once I drive with the now mirrors some more

They look good but I'm sure they have a little less visibility then the zx6r mirrors. But anything is better then the rabbit ears. Blacked out screen, better mirrors and flush mounts change the whole appearance of the bike.

Very much agree. I've completed those three. I'm am very pleased with the way my bike is shaping up. Not a whole lot I want to do to it immediately atleast.

Same here, much better look. The only thing I REALLY wanna still do is my exhaust (Marthy Delkevic or Viper). I'd like to do the clip-ons but the exhaust is a must IMO.

Clip ons and HID are my next top 2.
