That shot is pretty dark, but they appear to be Rizoma mirrors. They are pretty pricey. http://www.pjsparts.com/ I believe these guys are the only US distributor...If Jim (Damnut) is around he may be able to give you some better info.

Hey guys......whos taking pics of my bike from my site? HAHA!

They are actually an Ebay special!
They have the turn signals built in the housing, much like the 1125R's do.

They cost less then $50 shipped and work okay. Just gotta tighten them pretty good.

Give the bike a nice look. I have some better pics at home I can post tonight.

I think there have been a thread or two about them......

Please post other pics - I have an 1125CR on the way and I hate the stock mirrors, but since the turn signals are built in they're a little more difficult to get rid of.

They are exspensive and more difficult to look out of than the stocks, but I like the look better.

ya, im not so concerned with the turn signal function that is included in those. I just really like the shape, length, and height of those. Anyone know of something real similar, or what some options are since those are currently MIA in the market.

The Aprilia Tuono mirrors look similar. $60 for the pair



You can order them from Aprilia or through Al at americansportbike.com one of the site sponsors.
