I'm looking to replace my stock 9S mirrors and would like to see what you guys have gone with. I've noticed that bar end mirrors seem to be pretty popular on this board, but I'd rather have standard mounted units.

I'm leaning toward some Rizoma mirrors from Trojan Horse, but would really like to see these on an XB before I commit (kinda steep price). Anyway, please post photos of whatever you have. Thanks!

i dont have pics, but the rizoma mirrors look really nice, and they are pricey, but they are probably the best fit and finish of any mirror out there, i have the fold in bar end mirrors from american sportbike because i like the look better. but i i was gonna go with regular mirrors, the rizomas would be a no brainer

just my .02

My Rizoma 851's should be here from Trojan on Tuesday. I got them in black. I'll post a pic for you when I get them mounted on my Ss. Later,

Here are the Rizoma 851's I just installed. I will say these are quality pieces. All anodized billet. SS allen bolts, and very adjustable. The glass has that "euro" blue tint to them...I like it. That being said, these do vibrate on the Buell a bit at idle, under cruise though they slow down and images are decent. Def. better than having no mirrors, but not the rock solid image my CRG bar end had. Here are a couple quick pics...

I really like the mirror, grips and turn signals. That make a nice setup.

Where did you bought that? Expensive?

Thanks guys.

Stou, got the Rizoma mirrors and grips from Matt at Trojan. A little pricey since the Dollar sucks compared to the Pound.
Barend signals are Kellerman. Got them from David at streetfightersbydesign.com. They come in natural and polished/chrome too I think.

Murdoch, They were super simple to install. The come with 3 mounting options. The very nice screw in stud, complete with rubber sleeve to hide the jam nut, and 2 sets of long studs for mounting to cruisers with turn signal mounts underneath.
Yes, I plan pucks and sliders...bike has been apart for awhile, and I still have a few cosmetic mods to do yet. I need to decide if I'm going to paint the pucks frame gray, or orange to highlight.

It's the Eurofighter seat from Trojan horse
and I have the custom XB seatpad for it

I love it. It's very nice for agressive driving.

Just ordered the Rizoma Dynamic mirrors from Trojan-Horse. Can't wait to get 'em on the XB and lose the lollipops forever!

Thanks for all the input.
