Supporting Member whistler Posted October 16, 2018 Supporting Member Share Posted October 16, 2018 Tried the "Search" function, but no luck. Sorry if this is an old topic. I'm looking for other mfr's mirrors out there that have right-hand reverse i.e., left-hand threaded, mirrors like the GT's. I think I remember hearing that KTM may have a couple, but I didn't find anything really convincing in that regard. I did also check out DoubleTakeMirror.com. Bar-ends wouldn't offer me much utility, either. I can always "adapt" the right side mirror to a right-hand thread and shop that larger market , if necessary. Anyway, I'm still looking. Thanks for your time and any info you may have on the subject. 2019 Yamaha Tracer 900 GT (Annabelle) 2013 Suzuki V-Strom DL650 (Juliette) 2013 Yamaha FJR 1300 (Rachel) 2008 Suzuki Bandit 1250S (Fiona) 2006 Honda VFR800 (Jenny) 2005 Suzuki V-Strom DL650 (Hannah) 2003 Honda Shadow Sabre VT1100 (Veronica) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norcal616 Posted October 16, 2018 Share Posted October 16, 2018 look into mirrors for the FZ/MT/FJ-07/09 bikes... my FZ-07 and FJ-09 have the same mirrors and stem... maybe the FZ/MT-10 bikes? I dont recall any threads about diffrent mirrors, but a few about "extensions" ... 2012 wr250f - C-class 30+ age group 2015 fz-07- Hordpower Edition-80whp 2015 fj-09- Graves Exhaust w/Woolich tune by 2WDW @120whp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member duhg Posted October 17, 2018 Premium Member Share Posted October 17, 2018 My Suzuki DR650 mirrors will mount on the FJ. I bought mirror extenders from Procycle for both bikes. With the extenders, the stock mirrors are fine. https://procycle.us/bikepages/dr650.html#controls https://ridemsta.com/oh-tmr/ Riding makes me happy.

Supporting Member whistler Posted October 17, 2018 Author Supporting Member Share Posted October 17, 2018 Norcal and Duhg, thanks for the feedback. I'm actually good with the GT mirrors' stem length and fields of view. But, I'm looking for mirrors that don't drift at the ball and socket joint like the GT mirrors drift, at least on my bike. That's what's frustrating for me. That ball and socket isn't as tight as I'm used to seeing, such as on my DL650, or on my old Bandit. Once they were set, they stayed set and solid. The GT mirrors...not so much. It's just a niggle, but it's niggling me crazy. Thanks again for the assist. 2019 Yamaha Tracer 900 GT (Annabelle) 2013 Suzuki V-Strom DL650 (Juliette) 2013 Yamaha FJR 1300 (Rachel) 2008 Suzuki Bandit 1250S (Fiona) 2006 Honda VFR800 (Jenny) 2005 Suzuki V-Strom DL650 (Hannah) 2003 Honda Shadow Sabre VT1100 (Veronica) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporting Member whistler Posted October 17, 2018 Author Supporting Member Share Posted October 17, 2018 Yep, that's the little less-than-optimal PITA...I mean, ball and socket in question. 2019 Yamaha Tracer 900 GT (Annabelle) 2013 Suzuki V-Strom DL650 (Juliette) 2013 Yamaha FJR 1300 (Rachel) 2008 Suzuki Bandit 1250S (Fiona) 2006 Honda VFR800 (Jenny) 2005 Suzuki V-Strom DL650 (Hannah) 2003 Honda Shadow Sabre VT1100 (Veronica) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
