If I suck, your a pain in the a$$! ;D

Thanks for all the insights Pete.  Very much appreciated.  It's just hard to pull the trigger on a mirror when it's replacement means a big honking hole in each side of the fairing if you don't care for it.  All the insights minimize a lot of that worry.

How long have you had them on?  No mirror is ever going to do away with a head check but it's good to read they seem to be adequate to the task.

Hey, Pete!  That's pretty good when you can get 2lane excited about something! :2vrolijk_21:  Usually, it's the other way around. ;D ;)




You cost me five bucks last week.  You don't get to pick on me again until Tuesday evening!

My pleasure Don.  Understand your concern, had the same myself, but eventually said what the hell...Been riding with them for a week, the more I ride with them the more I get used to them.

Pete, I noticed in our video that the running lights did not operate on the mirrors. Guess they are turn signal only, or could they be wired to make the running lights work.

Then if they are on, would they distract you while riding at night

Brian, they are wired as turn signals only and you can't modify as running lights.  You would need a three conductor wire from the mirrors and it only comes with two.  They would not distract you if they could.

Well did you eliminate the "drag," you can tell your wife that, but that excuse won't work here!  Just admit it, you wanted it, it kicks @ss so you did it. Looks really clean, I like it!  Will think about doing it after the wheels get here.

Wow Pete.  Looks great.  Now that you are all practiced up and all - and have the great lift - Maybe Jamey and I could buy you a beer and we could ride over to your house and you could show us how?  Maybe?   What ya think?   :nixweiss:
