Mirror Extenders
Has anyone got experience of these. I'd like to be able see a bit more behind ( '99 S) but can't see an extender making a lot of difference unless it puts the mirror out by several inches.

I expect you know but I'll mention it anyway. The mirrors fold in on a spring (for storage / parking etc) but by holding them firmly at the hinge, you can actually adjust them so you do actually get a decent rear view. but you are right - unless the spacers are inches long they're not going to do a great deal..... personally I wouldn't bother - If you wanna spend some cash there's loads of other stuff to spend your dosh on.....

first mod on my bike. after reading the reviews on here. and i can say they do make a big difference. I think it must be all to do with angles rather than sheer width.
anyway, they defo work and work the £20 ish. k |
