To comply with the ADR's they have to be 80cm sq if flat or 64.5cm sq if convex...
So...does anyone know of any stock mirrors that don't look too bad ??

Another idea is the possibility of having 2 pairs making up the legal min. ie one on the perimeter frame rail and one on the bars such as 2 x 50mm diameter convex's. I am going to phone the engineer tomoro about this one....

I got these Russ, they don't look to shabby. Cost me $150. They might be up for sale after I get through my roadworthy.

Why not just go down to the wreckers, pick up whatever's cheapest and will work for rego, then piss 'em off once it's on the raod?

Not that easy mate...
For a start there's no decent wreckers round here....

The thing is this has to pass the Qld Transport scrutineers...highest road authority in Qld....

If I keep it legal then any copper that pulls me can get fooked...I'll have the report under the seat....

I might be if Sharky isn't.
Or at least I'd be keen to see a pic and get details of where to get them.

you do... most of the crap on my bike is cheap and it is all decent (i get rid of anything that isnt decent)

Graned you won't get anything up the the quality of what the Rizoma stuff is... but at their prices you can buy 3 cheap versions.
