Don't Know if anyone else thought of this, but on the 02 if you remove the mirrors, swap them left for right and mount them underneath the front fairing they bolt right on. If you then crank 'em up and adjust them, you can see nearly as well a with them in standard position and I think they look pretty hot :rock

What do you think?

I hope this picture up-load works...

If not someone email me off list and I can forward them to be posted...

Put 'em back!:ugh

 

[9mile]

I already did, along the road when they started to fold back.

Interesting though...

I think a bracket with smaller mirrors lower and more forward would work better, and would be better than bar-ends...

I have theese awesome little mirrors I got from a local parts store. They look like they will fit right below my clips, on top of my fairing. I will take pics of the outcome later, as for right now..Im on the 1000 grit stage of the right side of my frame. I will show the before and after in a while, right now its beer break time. :beer :beer

mirrors

howdy all,
ok, i know this is going off on a tilt here, but i originally subscribed to this post because i was looking for something to help me with my mirror placement. anyways, this is what i have and what i thinking about. i have a 2000 r1 with the stock mirror setup as stock. i have had a 2001 cbr 929 (if you ever get a chance to buy or receive one of these bikes, DONT!!!! just ask me about my law suit against the dealership because of these crappy bikes - ok enough ranting), a 1994 zx-7 which had tons of money dumped into it for maximum performance (but still holds absolutely nothing to the r1), and a 1986 ninja 600r. on my cbr and my kawies, the mirrors were able to be positioned so that i could more or less lay them out straight and fix them so i could see directly behind me. i am unable to do this on my r1. they have no vertical movement. they will just go front to back (and collapse if you go too far). i have tried to work out the kinks, trying to find the spot that works best, but in all honesty i cant see directly behind me unless i move my elbow over or lean over some to see. i am curious if anyone knows of a mirror mod, or an aftermarket mirror that will assist in this.

i know this was long winded, by hey if it fixes my problem, then i am thankful to you all ;-)

I know some guys do not like bar end mirrors, but I went to a bicycle shop and got one made by THIRD EYE and the model is (09). I had a 900RR and I did this to it. I loved it and I could see out of it better than the stock mirrors. It cost $12.95, so I figured if I didn't like it I could just change back to stock. I have removed the bar end (left) out of my silver '02 and have the new mirror ready to go in. It was a bitch to get the bar end holder out, as they are pressed in. I can give some tips if anyone wants them. Also, I can post pics when I get the bar end mirror installed, again, if anyone is interested........Later.......Michael
