Hey guys, I was looking for some bar end mirrors that would wrap around quickly and rest over the grips. I like the bar end mirrors but don't like how far they stick out. Has anyone seen any online? Let me know please.

Thanks

I bought the $21 Chinese ones on eBay. They go up versus out. Besides for some challenges with mounting(didnt like their hardware) hey have great visibility and seem to be well made.

I mounted these ones, again they point up. Can see soooo much better. I think it looks less bulky that the stock mirrors with blinkers also.

Rizoma 'Reverse Retro' bar end mirrors http://www.trojan-horse.co.uk/prods/223.html
can be used either folded 'outboard' or above the hand so they are no wider than a set of normal bar ends, as shown here.





They are more expensive than Chinese ebay mirrors but I'd be willing to bet they will last a lot longer and be a lot better made : )

I have the Reverse Retros and they are nice. Folded in, though, and you're staring at your arms.

Those are all great suggestions thanks, I was wondering if anyone tried shortening the stock ones and if so post some pics please.

Jeepnbueller sweet looking ride!! My winter project is fixing up my red 09' CR my buddy crashed for me! How did you attach the Rizoma front turn signals? the frame got scrapped off from the road, shaved off bout' 3/8" metal at the apex of the gas tank/frame, was thinkin' I could just install Uly frame pucks to cover it, do you have a part number for the pucks?
