Look good Dookie.

Iwas thinking about changing mine because the view is so poor.

Does it matter what year R1?

i got them off fleabay m8 they were listed as long stem r1/r6 mirrors
only paid £10.50 for them and i havnt damaged any storm bits so i can change my mind and go back.

You can fit them as they come but the rubber gaitor looks a bit out of place and there spring loaded into a position that puts the mirrors too far in , so i cut the pin on the joint and simply bolted it into storm bracket , you have to mess with bits of gaitor as the r1 stem is thinner than the storm one .
