Chewys mirror extenders?
I'm sick of being my inability to see behind me - all I see are my elbows!
I've found some mirror extenders from http://www.chewys-stuff.co.uk/ or these for slightly less: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Suzuki-SV6...item43a361ecb2 What have people got? I think £30+PP is quite expensive really, but for the ability to see behind me it'll be money well spent. |

Re: Mirror extenders
I had the chewy ones on my SV and they were great. Got some cheap Chinese ones for my fireblade and they were just as good. Only problem with the Chinese ones is they may not fit perfectly and your mirrors will vibrate. At least the chewy ones are guaranteed to fit.

Re: Mirror extenders
I got the chewy ones and fitted them at the weekend, world of difference on the way in. I thought it was worth the extra five quid or so to have them in a couple of days instead of weeks.
Can see behind me now without doing the camp 'lost my keys dance' (hip and shoulder movement) that I used to have to do. |

Re: Mirror extenders
I've got Chewy mirror extenders and Bandit GSF650S mirrors. The bandit mirrors are a straight swap. The arm is about 30mm longer which also moves the mirrors out by about 10mm.

Re: Mirror extenders
Defo don't want vibrating mirrors although vibrating mirrors are better than the mirrors I currently have.
How do you find the bandit mirrors? Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk HD |

Re: Chewys mirror extenders?
I have the cheapy ebay ones and they don't vibrate. They are easy to fit but I can still see half my shoulders still.
