Waiting patiently in the garage

Can it be warm out yet? I can't wait any more....



But while I wait, anyone have any recommendations for mirrors? Looking at this pic I think I could use a not so gaudy set.

Sorry i have no actual picture with these fitted to my bike, but i can say that the quality is all ok & they fit all ok with the supplied hardware.....They look way, way better than the stock "mickey mouse mirrors" - which is not hard, lol. Anyway they did seem a little bit restricted in rear view when i first fitted them as a direct comparison to the stockies. But in actual fact they are practical enough for everyday road use. You are able to see well enough behind in both mirrors with just movement of your eyes. At worst it may be just a matter of pulling your elbows in slightly to have full mirror view. In any case i very quickly adjusted to mine & would never go back to the butt ugly mickey mouse ears. If you are a "bigger" rider, then there are mirror mount riser kits available from USA eBAY suppliers. These kits will move the mirrors slightly up & out. I was going to fit some riser to mine, but in the end they work more than well enough.


Also please note that the supplied link below is from the AU eBAY site - but they do ship worldwide & would most likely have a USA eBAY store as well.

No doupt that some will say those mirros are a bit pricey - but i was happy enough with the overall quality, style, fit & fuction for my dollars. ( I had also done the previous "freebie" cut & shut of my stockers.... but in reality these light weight alloy units piss on any mods ).

Cheers.

Looking good! I went for the KTM folding mirrors. The 280mm ones, now I can see more than just my arms in the mirror.

Sure don't, what kind of software they make?

EMR (Electronic Medical Records) the company I work for uses their software.
