Has anyone installed bar end mirrors with handguards on their bike. Just wondering if it can be done. It looks like the CRG barend mirrors attach different from the others...like they clamp on the end of the grips somehow without interfering with the throttle?? |

I have Napoleons installed with the city X hand guards. |

Or, you could just get the hand-guards off of the Ducati Hypermotard. Turn signals and mirrors all in one. DOOM (Message edited by Thulsadoom on May 02, 2008) |

I did, but I didn’t put the mirrors on the end of the bar. I turned the post down and threaded it to fit the OEM threads and installed. Pic of them is on my profile. Second thought; maybe take the posts to a machinist and put a groove in the posts to accommodate the guards? (Message edited by point_doc on May 02, 2008) |

cheap, mountainbike bar end. guard trimmed to allow mirror to drop down. |

Eengler2...from what I can see it looks good. How are they for seeing behind you? |

Here's the solution I came up with for the Napoleons.

Marksm, Do you have a side photo of your bike. That looks real close to the look that I'm after. |

Not yet. It's apart right now. I'm changing to Renthal bars and Traction grips. I'll have to rework the mounts for the Napoleons since the inside diameter of the Renthal is so much smaller. |
