I took delivery of these mirrors this week.

On the bike, they look pretty nice - cheap plastic, but the shape looks nice.

First ride out, barely got up the road and the left mirror was left swinging when I tried to adjust it.

I contacted seller - and after being told there is a "tool" to fix this - got a little annoyed - I HAVE HEARD OF A SPANNER MATE - IT HAPPENS TO BE WHAT I USED TO TIGHTEN THE MIRROR. DUH!

They have since offered to replace the left mirror and they are sending another one to me. I'll reserve further judgement until I receive the other mirror.

Look, they are cheap. I would rather pay for Rizoma mirrors and get something that is of good quality. Even with the replacement mirror, I think I will be doing this.

Hope I've been of help.

Cheers Karen :thumbup:
Think I'll give these a swerve then.
I'm looking to replace mine as it's an all year rounder and even though i've dosed the bike in ACF 50,the oe mirrors are starting to show some rust.
Still of two minds whether to go with replacements on the bars,or bar end ones.

i got these and no vibrating or looseness, not the best of quality but just something to pass with until i have enough cash for rizomas
