What mirrors to use after flatbar convertion.

[bsabloke]

Thanks carl. If you could do it for me, it would be a big help.
I don't want to give my age away but i can remember when sinclair zx spectrum was cutting edge (& i wasn't at school )
Used up all my favours with the kids, getting them to do or show me things on the pc.

Sorry Mac that is outside my division but I mat be able to help with the grass. Try stamping on your foot with a very large hammer as this will take the itchy back away.

It's ok I've sorted it...



That's better...

OK if you create the first post in the thread, so new thread and put some text in then I can do the rest.

Oh and I used to have a Sinclair ZX81

Thanks for the plug amcq.
Do either of you have any pictures of the completed conversion?
I wouldn't mind doing it but don't fancy trimming the bodywork.
Richard

If you use ultra low Renthal handlebars and the right risers you don't need to trim the fairing, but obviously if you want the bars higher up and back further then you will,

Thanks chris,
Perhaps best to check out what some of the other boys & girls have done, before i set about the fairing with tools
Definitely need to do something, must be my age

Would bar end mirrors be an option ?

I think that would be an option, I saw that Mac got some in his flat bar kit "whats in the box#2", so perhaps Steve can say if they woked for him..........or perhaps he sold them to Mac because they were crap

He said they were quite good as it happens...TBH not my cup of tea so don't wait for a review from me as I have other plans...Anyway I like my elbows they look good...

Hi guys, does anyone know where i can get some different mirrors to fit in place of the std ones because now i've fitted a flat bar convertion kit my knuckles hit them when on full lock. Cheers.

hi where did you get the flat bar mod from please.regards Paul.

Hi,
Just finishing off 6 sets of extenders. Waiting for stainless steel bolts to be delivered. All should be available for delivery by the weekend.
5 more sets under construction.
Standard ones give 50mm extension to the mirrors. If longer one are required i can make them to order.
Prices on the forum are £25 delivered. Ebay price £25 + £4 delivery.
Post or pm if you require any.
Thanks
Richard
