I bought the Aprilla mirrors from American Sport Bike. Much less vibration and they are much better looking than the stock ones.

The Aprillia Tuono mirrors (2006 model) are the best looking mirrors out there, unless you prefer bar-end styles mirrors. The Tuonos are also decently priced, and just happen to be a direct bolt-on with no need for adapters. I've been running them for a few years, and love 'em.

I just put some of the CRG bar end mirrors on mine. They look really good. If you got the cash to throw around I would agree with The Italian Job on going with the Rizomas.

no, they're not Rizoma.
those are definitely cheaper ones, Rizoma is pricey but you can notice the difference from the other brands.
you can find something like that in the market at a good price, if you don't wanna spend the money for a Rizoma set...

I had the circuit 851's for a very brief time. Terrible to adjust and couldn't see very well out of them. The vibration was close to the stock mirrors. I've had CRG's twice. They have been just the best.
