i had BMC bar ends - got good vision but they were huge and gay as fuck.

I've got mounted ones imported from the UK- cant see shit but they look hot... I'm hoping to find a happy medium somewhere.

Small and you don't get to see much out of them.

Hi Nick,

If you dont want to go the bar end type, you can get Suzuki Bandit style handlebar clamps for your clutch and MC from either Mr Suzuki or MCS and fit normal type mirrors. I had to drill out the one on my 9 on the clutch side (slightly wider bolt spacing), but they work fine.

thanks hilsy

thing is at the moment i haven't got a mx bars on the bike. so i''m not sure if they would work, but i would prefer this to bar ends

Upmarket push bike shops have some trick bar end mirrors for use on MTBs, plastic or billet ally types, expanding plug style for hollow bars or screw in type for clipons.
Can't remember prices sorry.
MCS also do tricky little round CNC billet bar ends that mount either way, retail is about $80 each.

As long as you've got bolt on clutch / brake perches, these will work. You might need to choose your mirrors carefully (to have enough reach to clear your elbows)

i've got CRG bar ends on mine - fold in for splitting traffic:D

i've used this lil dentist mirrior it mounts to any flat or mx style bars.vission is'nt that good but you can see directly behind because your looking under your arm just have to shoulder check more.

Why are you so worried about what is behind you? I'd be paying more attention as to what's ahead.
