that is a very good price for extanders. they usually go for a lot more - same as ive got on mine & i think i paid that for a used pair.

Go quicker, then no-one will catch you and you don't have to worry about what's behind you.

Works for Rossi.....

It's only a fortnight since this was discused. I'm still in favour of the R1/R6 mirrors as advised on this Forum.They are nearly 2" wider and lower. Mine are cheapos from china about Â£17 not great quality but a big improvement.

I think they were 2001 model but i do'nt think any of them differ that much. Not sure if someone on here found that CBR 600 mirrors went straight on.
