sorry everyone not been on for ages but keep popping on to see what everyone is up to. Nice to see everyone carrying on the quality builds!!!! Can mirrors be sexy!!!!? ........... i do believe they are now came back from assen GP and noticed my offside mirror was cracked straight line bottom to top!! god knows how possibly caught while parked but who knows wasn't even out of place to notice when i got on bike. had been riding for about an hour before i noticed, Anyway i had seen these mirrors on the old ebay months ago so took the plunge and ordered them. Well pleased!!! please comments welcome but they are from Italy and solid aluminium fully adjustable including extend out!!!! so can see past elbows!! and have real glass mirrors ..... not the bottom of chinese take away tubs like the cheap ones, Not the cheapest but worth the money i think.

Been looking at these myself,about £70ish I think,look good mate do they fold in or are they a static fitment just the standard ones on mine already scrape the wall when getting it in the gate

Sexy ? Nah don't think so. They look like a Daleks chipolata extension...


EXTENSIONATE ! EXTENSIONATE !

I was looking at those as well and yes quite expensive. I didn't want to spend that sort of money without knowing what they were like. Fitment, suitability, sturdy, durability etc.

Yep vtwin they were £74 + £10 postage from italy came in about 4 days really good quality though!! you can adjust the stiffness so you could pivot to fold them in just under a rubber on the knuckle above where it fits to screen will take some close up pics when i get home to show better. Fitment is easy phoenix straight swap off with the old straight on with the new. they come as singles with 2 bases which are handed. really sturdy fit. Obviously the mirror bit smaller than original as its shaped and more streamlined but still can see nicely. Everything tightens up nicely so no movement not too much vibrating..... but hey your fitting them to a storm so what doesn't vibrate!!

Dalek chipolata extensions !!?? mac bit worried about what parties you are going to... or what you watching on the tinternet

I'll not comment on the Christian Deer but the mirrors have a certain attraction. They look better than the standard mirror extenders which, IMHO look even more naff. To actually have a reasonable rear field of view is something I crave.

Best thing in the pic is the quality skip . Sorry

The deer and cross referee to placidus who was a pagan roman that enjoyed the hunt. While out hunting stag (which was the symbol used for pagens) he came across a magnificent stag, through the stags eyes he saw the light of Christ and Christ spoke to him through the deer. Placidus then coverted to the new religion and his name to St Eustace. The image of the stag and cross refers to this.

The antlers on a stag also resemble spiritual authority as they above the physical head and grow up to the realm of spirits and also regeneration as they die and grow back bigger and stronger
