Author Message   Captnemo Posted on Sunday, January 13, 2008 - 12:00 am:        As to how a pair of 1125R mirrors would look on a Firebolt ?   Slaughter Posted on Sunday, January 13, 2008 - 12:04 am:        There's a couple threads going on just this subject and some photoshopping of the concept too. Check em out... and yep - looks cool but would be a little work. Mounts would bolt right up though.   Captnemo Posted on Sunday, January 13, 2008 - 12:11 am:        Since I had the mirrors off of both bikes for a track weekend, I did the swap and took some photos. You have to drill a hole between the mounting stud holes for the turn signal wiring to pass thru. The electrical connectors have one male & one female bullet connector. Since the turn signals are LED's the polarity matters. Making up a short adapter ( Gender changer ) for one of the leads should be pretty easy. The wires look long enough to connect to the existing Firebolt wiring harness.   Captnemo Posted on Sunday, January 13, 2008 - 12:12 am:        But, I'm the first to have actually bolted a set on...   Ccryder Posted on Sunday, January 13, 2008 - 12:46 am:        Great shots. Do you think they are any wider than the "r" mirrors? Do they vibrate more or less? Thanks Neil S.   Captnemo Posted on Sunday, January 13, 2008 - 12:55 am:        The mirrors are on the 1125R now, but I didn't put a tape measure or even start the engine in the Firebolt, so I don't have answers fro you. I sat on it and the mirror looks to give less of your elbows that the stock '06 mirrors.   Slaughter Posted on Sunday, January 13, 2008 - 05:33 am:        I'm betting this will become standard. Sure cleans it up... nicely!   Randomchaos Posted on Sunday, January 13, 2008 - 10:55 am:        I want those now . Thanks for doing that, and posting pictures of it! A quick OT question for ya, how do you like the Double Bubble windscreen? Im thinking of picking one up.   Clot Posted on Sunday, January 13, 2008 - 04:16 pm:        Yay, finally someone has posted pics - good work! Now, when can I get my hands on a pair and how bad are the vibes going to be?   Surveyor Posted on Sunday, January 13, 2008 - 06:17 pm:        Nice pics Slaughter, but why aren't you prepping your bike for the coming season instead of messing about with rear view mirrors........or have you retired? LOL   Slaughter Posted on Sunday, January 13, 2008 - 07:04 pm:        Hey - they aint MY pics - you are ab-so-lute-ly RIGHT that I need to get the bike track-ready. Much to do, money to spend. Mirrors? They're not allowed anyways.
