Mirror replacements 2017
Hi all,
London filterer here. Kinda fed up with the dumbo ears on the new SV. Other than bar ends as I'm not a fan of having no bar end weight, what replacement mirrors could I get for the OEM that don't stick out so much? Looking at cheapo 10mm such as Ryde and people say the vibrations are horrible. Would love some ideas please. Last edited by jmitch26; 11-10-18 at 09:01 AM. |

Alchemy also have a big selection, if you hover the mouse over the picture of mirrors it gives you more information like dimensions. https://www.alchemyparts.co.uk/mirrors/

Re: Mirror replacements 2017
For filtering, spending a bit extra on mirrors that hinge would be my recommendation.

Re: Mirror replacements 2017
Check if your bike has one LH and one RH thread before you look for mirrors, IIRC the left hand mirror on SV-AL7 has a LH thread and RH has RH so that wind force on mirror tends to tighten the thread. LH threads normally have a groove around the nut hexagon. Alchemy refers to LH thread as 'reverse thread' LOL.
