Anyone...Mirrors?

Hey was looking around on ebay just yesterday and noticed these mirrors for the WR250R and X....
And they look pretty cool if i do say so myself. and For $40? Do you think there worth it
Like the Carbon Fiber design.
Let me know what you guys think

They don't look too bad. It's cool that they come with all the neccessary adapters at least. They would probably go with more of a street/supermoto setup though.

Typically what you are going to find with mirrors is you get what you pay for. Cheapo mirrors are going to be flimsy, vibrate a lot and distort the image.

I bought take-off Aprilia SXV mirrors and they are great. They also fold back in the event of a crash. They aren't cheap though but they work and look great.

When I get around to it I'm going to order a pair of the dual star mirrors.

Carbon fiber's pretty, but I'd expect them to get yanked sooner than later...

Need pics and links to sources guys...

I bought cheapies and got what I paid for.

She's glued them at the pivot points thinking it will reduce the vibration.

There's got to be another solution.

They’re too much $$.......but they’re also REALLY nice…….

Hello
Can you tell me how these are working out? Vibration wise, and did they solve the problem of only seeing your shoulders in the mirrors? At least thats my big cripe with the stockers. Thanks

I went with these. They are pretty great vibration wise. Just make sure you ask this vendor to send you the left side reverse adapter. He'll include the kits for a few bucks more.

I'm pretty happy with'em.......they don't "bounce" when folded as I had feared they might (just need to set the proper tension at the elbow).......visibilty is very good (when set up fully extended as shown in my photos)
