Folks,

Just wanted to let you know that metric adapters are not required to mount mirrors on our most awesome of bikes. If you remove the two screws that clamp each master cylinder you can thread after market mirrors from the underside thus eliminating those crappy adapters.

Check it out:

Sorry I couldn't get a closer shot...camer kept focusing on the workbench.

Who makes those?

 

[Rokr]

These are by Drag Specialties...black flame stem sculpted teardrop mirrors.

I went to lowes and got a 5/16 1.5" allen screw since the two that come with the kit are too long or too short.

When u put your mirrors on did you have to roll back your brake and clutch

 

[Rokr]

Yeah, but just barely...not even noticeable, but enough to give me the correct viewing angle.

 

[Blaccjacc21]

this is part of my prob. i rolled back the handle bars so my viewing is not right

 

[Impaler]

Rokr, who makes those grips you have on?

 

[Rob06]

AWWW MAN, IS THAT A CRAFTSMAN SHOP VAC I SEE..... :icon10: , sorry fellas just in one of those stupid moods today
:amazon:

do they stick out as far as the stockers do?

 

[Rokr]

Grips are Flame Kurys;yes, craftsman shop vac; nope, they are a bit shorter...depends on the angle you choose since they are "teardrop."

Put these on my Raider S. Streamline much better with lines of the bike.

Chauncy,
you have pics of those on your bike you can share? If you could post them I would appreciate it.

 

[Chauncy]

Will do....

I went with flames as the seat is custom Corbin with flame stitching, the pegs, hiway pegs, grips and shift linkage are flames. I also have the chrome flame pushrod covers so overall, my flame stems flow perfectly with the theme of my bike, but that's the goal right? To make it yours. Now, just can't decide if I'm going with full on butane tru-fire paint job over the black or some sort of ghosting...decisions, decisions.

Please post us some pics of your entire bike. Close up details and the whole gorgeous thing! :wave:

 

[Chauncy]

I'm in the process of finishing up some accent lighting and I have wires and peices all over my garage at the moment. Give me a couple of days and I'll post some pics.

 

[Chauncy]

Pics of new mirrors... & the accent lights I just finished.

 

[DogBite]

The mirrors look really good. But can you see anything with those tiny little things? Are they functional?

 

[Chauncy]

If I was going to change the mirrors at this point I would go bigger. They work fine but you need to adjust them more often. They have to be just in the right spot to work.
