Mirrors

[Gary C]

Is there a way to extend the mirrors on a SV650s,I have had the bike two days and i find it a bit unnerving that i cant see what is behind me.

Yes mate you can get mirror extenders from Chewys;

26mm doesnt sound a lot but do they really work that good ? it seems like it needs more than 26mm when your riding lol

Pm'd you fella. Pointy?

You might want to try pushing the mirror stalk as far forward on its mount as it'll go and then angling the mirrors themselves to see behind you. Seemed to give a bit more rearward vision and less elbows when I did that on my GSXR and the mirrors are similar in construction to the pointy mirrors.

But yep as others have said extenders are the best way to fix it.

The important thing is that it's an extra 26mm.

Mine now measures nearly 12 inches, when sticking straight out, thanks to cheweys extenders.

Surely 12 inches is enough for good riding, or am I missing out on all the action behind?

+3 for the extenders - I couldn't get them into a position where I could see less than 2 inches of my arm without them, and I've now got it set just so.

Depends whether it is a Pointy or a Curvey :smt047
