Just wandering if anyone has tried these and if so what they think of them. They are cheap and I don't want crap....so thanks for the input. I need to get rid of the Ears I have now(stockers!). I am not sure I will like them only being 3"... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ewItem&item=310068541461&ssPageName=MERC_VIC_RCRX_ Pr4_PcY_BIN_Stores_IT&refitem=140236023537&itemcou nt=4&refwidgetloc=closed_view_item&usedrule1=Cross Sell_LogicX&refwidgettype=cross_promot_widget&_trk sid=p284.m183&_trkparms=algo%3DCRX%26its%3DS%252BI %252BSS%26itu%3DISS%252BUCI%252BSI%26otn%3D4 (Message edited by whitexc on July 22, 2008) | ||

I bought a set from my local Cycle Gear, they fit perfect and work great. I figure that after shipping it wasn't that much of a difference in price, it probably save you a few bucks if you buy from fleabay and I rather give my business to a store that I can go daydream every once in a while. | ||

I just bought them, one came with a stripped out bolt hole. I contacted the seller and he is shipping me a new one. The one i have installed looks really nice. I haven't had a chance to ride with them yet, broken collar bone. Installing is easy. If you have trouble getting them installed tightly, wrap a layer of duct tape around the expanding bolt unit, then torque the hell out of it. | ||

I put a set on the wifes scg and have not had any problem what so ever with them. The only advise is to loctite every bolt, they tend to rattle loose. | ||

Thanks for the input....what did you do with the holes for the stockers??? | ||

I have those in black on my Uly. Cheap, expendable and they work. CRG lane splitter knuckles will fit right on and allow you to fold then in traffic. (Message edited by treadmarks on July 23, 2008) | ||

I have the black ones. Been on for over a year. love them, can't beat the price. | ||

I too have them. They work really well and are cheap can't beat it. I've been asked if they were CRGs | ||

i never liked the convex lens thing, always preferred "regular" flat glass.. I bought mine from a bicycle shop, work great, $16.00 each....have used same brand on my last 6 bikes. | ||

"what did you do with the holes for the stockers???" Lowes or Home Depot, etc. and get some black hole plugs. | ||

i have them. They work great. Dont forget to use blue locktite when installing. I had one vibrate off! | ||

your local stealer-ship should have some little plastic plugs for 30 cents each. i got some fancy 2 dollar-bolts from the hardware store and used those before i knew that the stealership had 'em. don't know the part #, but i can tell you they are on the firebolts, cuz they gots differnt mirrors and such..... | ||

I wouldn't think just plug the stock holes would be good. The stock mirrors are a part of what hold the fairing to the bracket. +1 on the bolts. I'm personally going to stay with my black spike theme I'm using as windscreen screws. I plan on doing this to fill the holes when I get my bar ends.} | ||

^^^^I think we are talking Lightnings...for the Bolts you need the block off plates...correct? Anyhow, thanks for all the input...I think I'll try them out and worst case is I leave the stockers on with the bar ends...like a fellow Bad Web'r. By the way...how do the gray ones go with the gray on our Buells...? I like them better than the black but would like them to match somewhat. (Message edited by whitexc on July 23, 2008) | ||

I've got the gray ones on my 12 and don't think they look too bad.   |
