After market mirrors
 
Hi all

I just had a fence panel blown onto my sv, and it took all the weight on the rhs mirror, which promptly snapped clean off, luckily didn't touch the rest of the bike tho.

I was thinking about getting some nice after market items with indicators included, but the only ones I can find on the internet look suited to the sv:

Any one got any suggestions and/or pictures of aftermarket items with or without indicators.

That should read...don't look suited to the sv.

Come on, I'm sure some of you guys have opinions on trick mirrors ;)

They won't fit anyway, the switchgear doesn't have a thread for mirrors.

The both look better than the ones I was looking at, thanks!

I think I prefer the wizbiz ones., nice and pointy just like my sv.

I'm a little concerned about visibilty tho'. The original indicators are quite visible from a side profile as the lense is nearly all of the front half of the pod, but the indicators in these mirrors all look like they only face forward i.e. minimal side profile. Which I think might be a little dangerous.

The indicator mirrors on the gixxers look a lot more obvious.

The indies in the wizbiz mirrors are plenty visible from the side. The LEDs and lense comes around the side of the mirror and can be seen easily, I wouldn't have fitted them otherwise.
