New Mirrors for the DRZ...


Recommended Posts

well I installed these today (25$ for the set) and took them for a ride.. They offer some visibility but not as much as the stockers.  They don't vibrate which is good, and they have two points where they can pivot.  Im a pretty skinny guy so i was able to see around and behind me in each mirror.  Ill give them a proper review once i go for a full day ride.  The main reason for swapping was esthetics and when dumping the bike in rough terrain

Are they Legal in your area ?

 

you know, im not exactly sure about this.  It's required to have 2 mirrors in WA, but thats all I really know.  The bike is mainly used for trail riding with some street in between.. Ill check more into the legality as the last thing i wan't is the cops bothering me.

I highly doubt the PO-Leese will be happy with them , but I could be wrong ..as I've been wrong before .

autozone sells a 3" blind spot mirror for $1.

burn/melt four holes in the back of it, then pass two zip ties through it, and tie it to the cross bar brackets. 

it's crash and vibration proof. i've broken 2 in about 3 years of off roading.

just got mine in today although it may take a little convincing to get them on my fat bars.
