Can anyone with an XB-R do me a favor and measure the spacing between the mounting bolts. Center-to-center if possible.

Thanks

Henrik

Hey Henrik,
Well with my eye and tape in hand I see 1" @ 1/16 ,Thought must be a better way,Got my Dial Indicaters out to check I wd. say 1 inch and a Hundred thousands, Guess my eye was Not too BAd still ( with glasses ) :-)
Of course center to center,These are the two small mounting studs with the mirrors that Nut from the inside Correct??

Thanks Chris. I appreciate you taking the time.

Only 1" bolt spacing eh ...? Well that blows that idea out of the water : ) The S2 mirrors have a 1 2/3" spacing approximately.

I had wild ideas of swapping the somewhat short S2 mirrors with saggy mirror boots for the XB-R long stalk mirrors - I'd like to see more than my elbows ;)

Thanks again.

Anytime Henrik,
Glad I could help, Could ya not just drill another hole and still mount what you are trying to do?
