The mirrors on my sv are crap. Small round and vibrate wildly at speeds over 40mph so motorway they are pretty useless. Has anyone changed there mirror's to a better looking and more stable mirror?

I got bar end mirrors today and they are brilliant. Much better than standard fully faired mirrors. I can see loads more, rather than just my elbows. They don't vibrate.
Only downside is they are a bit low, so not quite in line of sight. |

Do they give as much rear view as the original mirrors? And how much were they? Thanks

Well I don't know about standard naked mirrors, never used them. But they are a lot better than faired mirrors. They were £30

Has anyone else got issues with the standard naked sv650 mirror's vibrating? Does anyone know of a solution or a mirror that doesn't vibrate?

It's a pointy puny.
I didn't have issues with my naked ones vibrating. How much vibration are we talking cringer? Completely blinding? Do you have barends/weights fitted? Just, I can't see any pattern mirrors (mounting in the same way as standard) being any better for vibration - wondering if something else is amiss

Nothing wrong with my mirrors either. Better than the ones I had on my 'S'

My curvy mirrors are fine - as Dave20046 asks, do you have bar-end weights, also are your wheels in balance?
Dave - my question was aimed at cringer.
